BS EN 311 focuses on wood-based panels. The aim of the BS EN 311 is to provide best industry practices to demonstrate the strength of the wood-based panels.
BS EN 311 specifies a method of assessing the surface soundness of overlaid wood-based panels and unfaced particleboards, wet and dry process fibreboards and cement bonded particleboards.
BS EN 311 on wood-based panels is useful for:
To ensure wood-based panels offer adequate quality and strength when in use, it is vital that they undergo the best industry verification.
BS EN 311 provides a test method to check the tensile strength showing the wood has the load-carrying capacity. This will help to check the quality of the flooring that can last longer and can prevent the waste of money and time in refurnishing.
