This European Standard 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 producing, purchasing, selling and utilising pellets.
The durability is the measure of the resistance of densified fuels towards shocks and/or abrasion as a
consequence of handling and transportation processes.
