BS EN 14290 is a European standard that discusses secondary raw materials for zinc and zinc alloys. Zinc (Zn) is used to make several alloys due to its galvanizing and sacrificial properties.
BS EN 14290 specifies the requirements for the properties and condition of a specific range of tradeable secondary raw materials with the predominant zinc content. BS EN 14290 defines these materials uniformly at the European level so that they can be traded within the economic cycle as raw materials with product character and their recycling is carried out specific to the material.
BS EN 14290 on secondary raw material applies to:
The most important forms of secondary raw material are scrap, such as usable waste of ferrous, nonferrous, and precious metals; spent lubricants; rejected material from components; discontinued articles made of polyethene, worn-out tire treads, spent sulfuric acid, and waste paper.
BS EN 14290 provides you with a standardized pattern of designation from which a rapid and unequivocal description of a product is conveyed in communication. It provides mutual comprehension at the international level about products that meet the requirements of the relevant document.
With obedience and compliance to BS EN 14290, you can efficiently manage the trade of raw materials.
