This draft European Standard is submitted to CEN members for enquiry. It has been drawn up by the Technical Committee
CEN/TC 194.
If this draft becomes a European Standard, CEN members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations
which stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration.

This draft European Standard was established by CEN in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CEN member into its own language and notified to the CEN-CENELEC
Management Centre has the same status as the official versions.

European foreword
This document (prEN 12875-1:2024) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 194 “Utensils
in contact with food”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 12875-1:2005.
This document includes the following significant technical changes with respect to EN 12875-1:2005:
— Adaptation of the test to the state of the art (test cycle, water quantity, detergent and rinse aid);
— Number of test cycles;
— Editorial changes.

Introduction
This document specifies a test method for the determination of the mechanical dishwashing resistance of
domestic articles. The results obtained according to this document are intended to serve for comparison
purposes for the dishwashing resistance of the different domestic articles and give an indication of
resistance only under the standard conditions of this test.
The dishwasher test method described in this document is both time consuming and expensive. However,
no single accelerated and inexpensive test is available which gives comparable results to the dishwasher
test for the whole variety of utensils made of various materials which are cleaned in dishwashers. The
test method described here is intended to be used as a reference method for dishwashing resistance.
Accelerated test methods may be used instead of the reference test method provided that valid
comparison to the dishwasher test is shown.
Consideration should be given to the normal use of each type of domestic article and its normal frequency
of mechanical dishwashing.
Further parts of EN 12875, under the general title Mechanical dishwashing resistance of utensils are as
follows:
— Part 2: Inspection and evaluation
— Part 4: Rapid test for domestic ceramic articles
— Part 5: Rapid test for ceramic catering articles

1 Scope
This document specifies a method for testing the resistance of domestic articles made from ceramic, glass,
glass ceramic, decorated glass, vitreous enamel, coatings, rubber, silicones, metal and plastics under the
combined chemical, thermal and mechanical stresses of mechanical dishwashing in domestic
dishwashers.
It specifies a reference test method for domestic dishwashing only. The minimum number of dishwashing
cycles is defined in EN 12875-2.
