DIN EN 16566:2014-08

This European Standard defines the characteristics, specifications, and the corresponding classification of interior and/or exterior fillers, whether in powder or paste form, in aqueous or solvent phase, mono- or multicomponent. It completes these by other properties to be specified on a case by case basis. It identifies the criteria that need to be taken into consideration when it is wished to evaluate the aptitude of a filler system for a particular use in painting and provides a framework for the exchange of this information between manufacturers and users. It is incumbent on the manufacturer to define the appropriate categories related to the intended use and appearance. The aim of this European Standard is to combine by normative references the use of existing standards complemented, when necessary, with additional and/or modified requirements so that fillers can be described and evaluated under comparable conditions. The committee responsible for this standard is NA 002-00-15 AA "Bautenbeschichtungen" ("Coatings for masonry") at Standards Committee Coatings and Coating Materials at DIN.
