Products should be made only from one or more of the following materials if they are to be considered as Class A1 and Class A1FL without testing. Products made by gluing one or more of the following materials together will be considered Class A1 and Class A1FL without testing provided that the glue does not exceed 0,1 % by weight or volume (whichever is the more onerous) . Panel products (e.g. of insulating material) with one or more organic layers, or products containing organic material which is not homogeneously distributed (with the exception of glue) are excluded from the list. Products made by coating one of the following materials with an inorganic layer (e.g. coated metal products) may also be considered as Class A1 and Class A1FL without testing. None of the materials in the table is allowed to contain more than 1,0 % by weight or volume (whichever is the more onerous) of homogeneously distributed organic material. Material Notes Expanded clay Expanded perlite Expanded vermiculite Mineral wool Cellular glass Concrete Includes ready-mixed concrete and precast reinforced and prestressed products Aggregate concrete (dense and lightweight mineral aggregates, excluding integral thermal insulation) May contain admixtures and additions (e.g. PFA), pigments and other materials. Includes precast units Autoclaved aerated concrete units Units manufactured from hydraulic binders such as cement and/or lime, combined with fine materials (siliceous material, PFA, blast furnace slag), and cell generating material.
