This European Standard shall be given the st
12、atus of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by June 2002, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by June 2002. Annexes A and B are informative. According to the CENKENELEC Internal Regulations, the national sta

14、3:2001 (E) 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the characteristics of floor coverings with compact surface layers, made of polyvinyl chloride and modifications thereof, on a filled fibrous backing and supplied in roll form. To encourage the consumer to make an informed choice, the standard incl
15、udes a classification system (see EN 685) based on intensity of use, which shows where these floor coverings should give satisfactory service. It also specifies requirement for marking. 2 Normative References This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other pu
16、blications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or rev
