This European standard concerns pages only. It is not possible to test a system consisting of several different layers. This European standard does not contain any assessment of the plate to be tested in terms of its environmental requirements.

Protection against root penetration of a leaf is tested in containers where the leaf is exposed to roots under certain conditions.

As long as the goal is to achieve homogeneous material bonds (eg solvent welding or hot air welding), different bonding techniques can be combined in the test setup. Such joins are considered equivalent. However, glueless joints and glued joints, or combinations of two different types of glued joints, are not considered equivalent and require a separate test sequence.

Each year, the growth of test plants in each experimental and control vessel will be determined by recording the height of the plants and the stem diameter (20 ± 2) cm. The viability of test facilities will also be evaluated. Plant damage (growth deformation, leaf discoloration, etc.) should be recorded separately.
