Paints and varnishes - Fillers for internal and/or external works - Adaptation of fillers to European standards

This technical specification addresses the requirements and test methods for fillers used in paints and varnishes within civil and building engineering applications. It focuses on ensuring that these materials are compatible with relevant European harmonized standards. The document outlines specific criteria for assessing the performance and safety of internal and external fillers, which are essential components in various coating systems. By providing a unified framework, it facilitates the evaluation of product conformity across different markets. The scope covers detailed procedures for sample preparation, testing protocols, and acceptance limits to guarantee consistency and reliability. This approach supports manufacturers in aligning their products with broader regulatory expectations while maintaining quality control throughout the production process. The guidelines serve as a reference for quality assurance teams and technical laboratories engaged in the verification of construction-related coating materials.
