Overview
ISO 19067:2026, titled “Building and civil engineering sealants - Determination of changes in colour after laboratory accelerated weathering procedures,” is an international standard developed by ISO. This standard provides a consistent method for assessing the color stability of opaque sealants subjected to accelerated weathering under laboratory conditions. It is specifically applicable to opaque sealants, excluding metallic, pearlescent, translucent, or transparent products.
This document is designed to support professionals in the construction and civil engineering sectors who need reliable color performance data for sealants exposed to artificial light, heat, and moisture during durability testing. By following ISO 19067:2026, manufacturers and testing laboratories can ensure their products meet consistent and internationally recognized criteria for color stability.
Key Topics
Scope
The standard defines methodologies to determine color changes in opaque sealants after laboratory exposure to artificial light sources, simulating weathering effects.Test Specimen Preparation
Detailed steps are outlined for the preparation of test specimens on aluminum or glass panels, including requirements for quantity, flatness, absence of bubbles, and consistent sealant application.Conditioning
Specifications for conditioning specimens before testing ensure that ambient conditions do not introduce variable color changes.Accelerated Weathering Procedure
Describes exposure to artificial weathering cycles involving xenon arc light sources, controlled temperature and humidity, water spray or immersion, and repositioning of specimens for uniform irradiation.Color Measurement
Utilization of spectrophotometers and measurements performed in the CIE 1976 Lab* color space, with records taken before and after exposure.Assessment and Reporting
Outlines calculation of color changes and provides a checklist for test reporting, aiding traceability and consistency in results.
Applications
ISO 19067:2026 is applicable to a range of practical scenarios in the construction industry:
Quality Assurance in Sealant Production
Sealant manufacturers can utilize this standard to verify product color stability over simulated long-term exposure, ensuring product claims are substantiated.Specification and Procurement
Building designers and procurement teams can reference this standard in project specifications to guarantee that sealants meeting color change thresholds are used.Research and Development
R&D laboratories can apply ISO 19067:2026 to evaluate formulations for improved weathering stability, enabling competitive differentiation and compliance with performance requirements.Independent Testing Laboratories
Organizations conducting third-party product evaluations can employ this standard to deliver recognized and comparable results to clients and regulatory authorities.
Related Standards
ISO 19067:2026 references and aligns with other relevant international standards, including:
- ISO 6927 – Vocabulary for building and civil engineering sealants
- ISO 4892-1 – General guidance on methods of exposure to laboratory light sources

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through
ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee
has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely
with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

4 Principle
Test specimens are prepared in which the sealant to be tested is applied to aluminium panels or glass panels.
At least three specimens of each sealant under evaluation shall be prepared. After conditioning, measure the
colour value of the specimens. Then, the specimens are exposed to artificial light, heat and moisture. At the
end of the exposure period, measure the colour value of exposed specimen sealant to examine the changes
in colour of the test sealant.
