This European Standard specifies the methods of test, which can be used to measure elasticity and related properties of fabrics, when they undergo a deformation of their surface, excluding narrow fabrics.  Two methods are specified, one a dynamic method (method A) and the other a static method (method B).
The results obtained cannot be compared. The choice of method should be agreed between parties and indicated in the test report.

Frequently Asked Questions

CEN/TC 248/WG 22 is a Working Group within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is named "Elasticity of fabrics". This committee has published 3 standards.

CEN/TC 248/WG 22 develops CEN standards. Currently, there are 3 published standards from this working group.

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.
