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 European Standard specifies a photometric test method for the assessment of visual gloss by means of a reflectometer value measured at an angle of 45°. It is applicable to plane paper and board surfaces of high gloss, commonly called glossy papers and boards, having reflectance values, measured according to this European Standard, above approximately 7. Materials containing optical brightning agents may be measured.

ISO 8254-2:2003 specifies a photometric test method for the assessment of visual gloss by means of a reflectometer value measured at an angle of 75 degrees. It is applicable to plane paper and board surfaces of low gloss, commonly called matt papers and boards having reflectance values, measured according to ISO 8254-2:2003, between 0 and approximately 20. Materials containing optical brightening agents may be measured.
