BS EN 650 specifies the characteristics of floor coverings based on polyvinyl chloride and modifications thereof, on jute or polyester backing or on polyesler felt with polyvinyl chloride backing. supplied in either tile or roll form.
To encourage the consumer to make an informed choice the standard includes a classification system (see
EN 685) based on intensity of use, which shows where these floor covenngs should give satisfactory service.
It also specifies requirements for marking.
