European foreword
This document (EN 599-2:2016) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 38 “Durability of
wood and wood-based products”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by March 2017, and conflicting national standards shall

Significant technical differences between this edition and EN 599-2:1995 are as follows:
— Clause 4, Classification, Clause 5, Information to be supplied by the manufacturer and Clause 6,
Marking, have been merged into one Clause 4, Labelling, which outlines the information to be presented
on the product label, relative to its efficacy;
— an example of how to report efficacy information on a label is given in Annex A;
— the system of codes for use in classifying and labelling the efficacy of wood preservative products
has been abandoned;
— the Normative references and Bibliography have been updated.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
