27、eilings); HPL composite panels/sidings for exterior wall and ceiling finishes (including suspended ceilings). It also specifies methods for the evaluation of conformity of the product to the requirements, and includes requirements for marking. It covers only the HPL panels for non-structural applica
28、tions, and does not cover fixing systems. The products are intended for use as wall and ceiling finishes for internal and external applications according to the manufacturers specifications. The scope of this document does not cover: a) overlaid or veneered wood-based panels where the overlay/veneer
29、 is not HPL; b) HPL-surfaced wood-based panels intended for use as structural components. These products are covered by EN 13986 (wood-based panels for use in construction). This document covers only characteristics related to health, safety and energy-saving. All other characteristics are covered i
