Specifies requirements for sheet floor-covering made up of layers of PVC compounds and self-bonded together. It does not include backed floor-coverings. Includes requirements for dimensional tolerances and stability, limits for volatile matter, flexibility before and after ageing, and resistance to indentation and to various substances.

This standard specifies requirements for unbacked flexible PVC floor-covering in the form of sheet having a smooth or embossed wearing surface. It does not apply to floor-covering consisting of layers of plastics and fibrous materials, backed or sandwiched, or flooring consisting of a base material laminated with a wear layer which may be plain, patterned, embossed or printed.NOTES:1. Floor-covering having an embossed surface or other design effects penetrating any part of their thickness, may be supplied as agreed between the purchaser and supplier. The permanence of such surfaces will be dependent on the traffic density and this should be a consideration in the choice of these materials.2. Appendix A sets out a summary of the limits applying to sheet floor-covering tested for compliance with this standard.3. Advisory information on the determination of compliance of a 'lot' with the standard is given in Appendix B.
