This European Standard specifies the characteristics of cladding profiles and tiles made from cellulose-based materials and thermoplastics, usually called wood-polymer composites (WPC) or natural fibre composites (NFC), for external or internal use.<\/p>\n
This part of EN 15534 is applicable to extruded profiles but also to tiles manufactured by other plastics processing techniques, e.g. injection moulding.<\/p>\n
It is not applicable to support rail profiles, cover strip profiles and fastener devices which are out of the scope of this part of EN 15534.<\/p>\n
EN 15534-1 specifies the test methods relevant to this part of EN 15534.<\/p>\n
\nNOTE For editorial reasons, in EN 15534 the abbreviation \u201cWPC\u201d is used for \u201ccomposites made from cellulose-based materials and thermoplastics\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
