The responsible German body involved in its preparation was the Normenausschuss Kunststoffe (Plastics Standards
5、Committee), Working Committee NA 054-04-05 AA Bodenbelge. Amendments This standard differs from DIN EN 14085:2003-05 as follows: a) Classification requirements (clause 4) have been revised. b) A new Table 2 “Classification requirements for floor panels” regarding the effects of a furniture leg, of a
6、 castor chair and the swell in thickness of a floor panel has been included. Compared with DIN EN 14085:2010-08, the following correction has been made to the German version only and therefore do not affect the English text: a) in Table 2, the graphical symbol of Class 22+ has been replaced.
