June 2003.
In this European Standard annex A is informative and annex B is normative.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following

EN 13489:2002 (E)

Introduction
This European Standard is one of a series of standards about wood flooring and wood panelling and cladding.
This standard specifies the characteristics of multi-layer parquet. It is based upon current dimensional standards used
in the industry and other characteristics together with functions which have been verified by test.
A large amount of knowledge exists about multi-layer parquet and values for product characteristics are attested by
long use and experience. It is therefore not necessary to have test results. For new products technical data will have
to be verified by testing.
The appearance of the parquet floor is mainly influenced by species, classification and the pattern.

NOTE
The product is usually delivered with a factory applied surface coating which allows the product to be taken into use

4.4

Appearance

4.4.1

General rules

Tables 1 to 4 define the classification relating to appearance rules for the face and for the non-visible parts (back
and edges) of an element of the most commonly used species for multi-layer parquet as defined in this standard.

Features shall be measured according to EN 1310 (knots assessed according to the general method of 4.1 in EN
1310:1997). Biodeterioration is measured according to EN 1311.
A classification with three appearance classes is specified, designated
, ∆ and .
A classification named « Free class » is based on the principles laid out in Annex B.
The material used for the top layer shall be selected hardwood or softwood, fresh and sound without rot, fungus,
mould or insect damage. There will be variations from strip to strip, but the total impression of the installed floor
shall show a homogeneous character of each classification.
To allow for unavoidable classification differences, 3 % of the strips in a batch may be from other classes. Any
additional strips from other classes are allowed as long as the general impression of the floor is not disturbed.
Multi-layer parquet with a mosaic-like pattern shall be classified according to EN 13488.

4.4.2.2

Free class

The free class covers any species which may be used for parquet and for which hardness HB has a minimum mean
2
value of 10 N/mm . Hardness shall be measured according to EN 1534. The free class covers any classification which

the producer wishes to offer or which is requested by the buyer. The proportions or limits of features shall be
specifically indicated in the producers literature/data sheets, in conformity with Annex B and stated to Table B.1 when
it refers to hardwood and according to Table B.2 when it refers to softwood.
NOTE

10 N/mm : approximately 1 kgf/mm

Classification rules for type 4 parquet

Manufacturers shall use their own classification requirements: refer to the free class in 4.4.2.2.
4.4.4

Natural colours

Timber colours are mainly dependent on the wood species.
NOTE

All timber varies in colour when exposed to light over a period of time.

4.5 Moisture content
The moisture content of the upper layer shall be between 5 % and 9 % at the time of the first delivery of the product.
The only suitable method of measurement for moisture content for multi-layer parquet is given in EN 13183-1 (ovendry method).
NOTE

EN 13183-2 (electrical method) can only be used for an estimation of the moisture content.

4.6 Geometrical characteristics
4.6.1

General

All requirements are given at a reference moisture content of 7 % and are applicable at the time of the first delivery of
the product.
The methods of measurement of geometrical characteristics are given in EN 13647.
NOTE
For simple calculation, it should be assumed that the thickness and width of an element change by 0,25 % per 1 %
of moisture content.
For more precise calculation, the coefficient to be applied to determine changes in dimensions due to changes in moisture
content should be evaluated through laboratory tests.

4.6.2

Dimensional characteristics and limit deviations

Dimensional characteristics and permitted deviations of dimensions of elements at all points at the time of the first
delivery of the product are given according to the type of multi-layer parquet and are shown in table 5.

4.7 Technical specification and properties
4.7.1

General

The element shall be precisely machined, properly sanded and shall have tongue and/or groove on all sides to make
an effective laying possible.
NOTE 1

The tongue may be detachable.

NOTE 2
The cross laminated construction minimizes the possibility of the wood to move (shrink and swell) under changing
climatic conditions.

4.7.2

Technical characteristics required when in service

Typical values for wood hardness shall be determined by the test defined in EN 1534.
The laying instructions shall be supplied by the producer/supplier.
NOTE
The elements specified in this standard will be part of a total floor construction and can only meet the technical
demands on the parquet when in service if specified and installed according to the laying instructions or usual specifications.

4.7.3
NOTE

4.7.4
4.7.4.1

Specific site requirements
See prEN 14342.

Appearance

General

This standard specifies elements manufactured from a natural material.
4.7.4.2

Species

Species shall be specified. A list of the most commonly used wood species is given in Annex A.
For appearance rules and natural colours, refer to 4.4.
13


EN 13489:2002 (E)

NOTE
Wood species exhibit natural colour and grain. Each species and consignment will have varied decorative
appearance according to the procurement area.

4.7.4.3

Classification

The class shall be specified.
The decorative appearance of each species will vary with class.
NOTE
It should be noted that some classes allow many natural characteristics. This fact should be taken into account
when specifying decorative appearance.

4.7.5

Renovation and repair

Multi-layer parquet shall be capable of undergoing renovation at least twice, if not subject to excessive wear and tear
or if renovation does not remove an excessive amount of wood.
The construction shall be such that one or more strips of the top layer and/or the whole element shall be capable of
being replaced.

5

Marking

Each package defined by the manufacturer at the time of the first delivery shall be clearly identified as follows:
-

multi-layer parquet and if applicable its trade name;

-

the designation of the appearance class (
, ∆,  or appropriate designation for free class(es));

-

the nominal length of the element, in millimetres and the number of elements; or

-

if random, the mean length, in millimetres; or

-

the total length, in metres;

-

the nominal width and commercial thickness, in millimetres;

-

the laid measure in square metres;

-

the trade name of the species;

-

patterns, if applicable, (if mosaic-like pattern, reference to EN 13488);

-

if required, the durability class (EN 460) or preservative treatment (EN 351-1) against biodeterioration;

-

reference to this standard, EN 13489.
