scope:

This part of ISO 16000 specifies a laboratory test method using test chambers defined in ISO 16000-9 and evaluation procedures for the determination of odours emitted from newly produced building products under defined climate conditions. The method can also, in principle, be applied to aged products. This part of the standard applies to various test chambers used for determination of the emission from building products. Sampling, transport and storage of materials to be tested, as well as preparation of test specimens are described in ISO 16000-11.
