Test report 7518
The approval
The DLG quality marks and seals stand for independent tests and certifications of products, systems and processes (such as manufacturing processes) that are based on requirements that are drawn from the field. The test criteria are laid down by independent test commissions that are made up by volunteer experts. These criteria describe the methods of testing the essential and value determining features of products or processes. The specifications that define a specific quality of a product or process are drawn from the field and are in line with the latest scientific findings. The quality mark is awarded to a product or process after the test has revealed that it complies with the high DLG standards. Depending on the type of test and product group, the mark is either awarded under the RAL quality assurance scheme or as DLG quality mark under the DLG quality standards scheme. The DLG tests provide consumers with valuable purchase information and at the same time ensure that the quality of the tested product is maintained at a consistently high level. By submitting their products to a DLG test, manufacturers agree to accept an ongoing and independent quality monitoring programme for the products, systems and processes tested. This programme is subsequently carried out by qualified samplers and auditors who on an ongoing basis take unannounced samples at the manufacturer’s or dealer’s premises for subsequent analysis or carry out audit processes.
This DLG quality mark test involved measuring PAH migration to Tenax for the rubber mats Komfortex Floor Protection and Elastic Sheet. The test was based on the ‘Project report on PAH migration from rubber floor mats’ as provided by Fraunhofer-Institut für Verfahrenstechnik und Verpackung IVV, Freising, Germany, dated 8 August 2018 and DIN 3763:2022-08 (Resilient barn floor coverings in the walking and lying area of cattle and dairy cows – Requirements and testing) and DIN 3762:2022-07 (Barn floor coverings – Determination of the migration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)).
