19、98:2016 (E) 4 Introduction Resilient, textile and laminate floor coverings and in case of floating installation with underlays, the combination of these floorcoverings with underlays, have a number of specific characteristics and are classified in a number of use classes. In order to make the classi
20、fication and these specific characteristics understandable and recognizable to the consumer, graphic symbols have been developed. For practical reasons, only symbols for characteristics linked directly to a European or ISO Standard have been developed. Copyright: This document and these symbols are
21、copyright protected by CEN. The symbols may not be altered, changed in any way except size and colour. Similarly, no parts or elements of these symbols may be copied or redesigned in order to create new symbols not included in this document. These symbols can only be used when the product is tested
22、or classified according to the related standard. PD CEN/TS 15398:2016 CEN/TS 15398:2016 (E) 5 1 Scope This Technical Specification establishes a system of graphic symbols for use in the marking of the following floor coverings and specifies the use of these symbols: resilient floor coverings manufac
