This working document aims to define the requirements and method used for testing the mechanical durability
of pellets. It is intended for persons and organisations that manufacture, plan, sell, erect or use machinery,
equipment, tools and entire plants related to such pellets, and to all persons and organisations involved in

The durability is the measure of the resistance of densified fuels towards shocks and/or abrasion in
consequence of handling and transportation processes.
