AMBIANCE Delivers on Standardization

CWA 18367:2026 Published

A key milestone for biobased materials in Europe!

We are proud to announce that CWA 18367:2026 - "AMBIANCE - Biobased products for outdoor use: durability against external agents" has been officially published by CEN-CENELEC and is available in the CWA download area. This CEN Workshop Agreement marks the successful conclusion of a standardization process that the AMBIANCE project has actively contributed to, translating cutting-edge research into a concrete and actionable European document.

Why does this matter? Standardization is what bridges research and the real market. The publication of CWA 18367:2026 means that the innovations developed within AMBIANCE are not only scientifically validated, but now formally embedded into the European standardization landscape.

Key Takeaways:

🟢 From research to standards

 The results developed within AMBIANCE have directly informed the content of this CEN Workshop Agreement, ensuring they are actionable and market-ready.

🟢 European recognition

The document is published under the CEN-CENELEC framework, giving our work visibility and credibility across the European standardisation ecosystem.

🟢 A collaborative achievement

This result is the product of close cooperation between AMBIANCE experts and the broader CEN community, including UNI - Ente Italiano di Normazione, who managed the Workshop process.
