Joint sealants for non-structural applications in buildings and pedestrian walkways

This test is used for the CE marking of cold-applied polymeric joint sealants for

• facade elements (EN 15651-1)
• glazing (EN 15651-2)
• sanitary applications (EN 15651-3)
• pedestrian walkways (EN 15651-4)

The initial testing must be performed by an independent, accredited, notified testing laboratory. We naturally meet these requirements. This is followed by testing of joint sealants based on polyurethane, MS polymer, silicone, polyurea, polysulfide, acrylate dispersion, etc.

This test is relevant for manufacturers of joint sealants.

DIN EN 15651 specifies conformity assessment procedure 3, i.e., the initial testing of joint sealants must be performed by an accredited, notified testing laboratory. Once the manufacturer has met the requirements of DIN EN 15651, the declaration of performance can be issued and CE marking applied.

Initially, the joint sealants are classified by application area and class, and a test plan is drawn up. Subsequently, the test specimens are prepared and the tests are conducted. A test report with the corresponding classification is issued upon completion of the testing.
