CEN/TC 89/WG 11 - Thermal testing of materials
To prepare standards for testing thermal conductivity and thermal resistance of building materials and industrial insulation, supplementing EN 12664, EN 12667 and EN 12939, in order to cover measurements of thermal conductivity at high temperatures and low temperatures and to meet the needs expressed by CEN product TCs. The first task will be to prepare proposals for work items to be approved by CEN/TC 89.

The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Working Group in CEN is a specialized group responsible for developing standards or technical work within a defined scope. These bodies bring together international experts to create consensus-based standards that support global trade, safety, and interoperability.
This Technical Specification provides additional information to that given in EN 12667, EN 12664, EN 12939 and ISO 8302 on the design of apparatus and operational procedures required to determine the thermal resistance of thermal insulation products in the temperature range 100 °C to 850 °C using the guarded hot plate method.
