echnological Institute. Report no. 156/15. The exposed time was 1000 hours. Organisms Aspergillus niger Aspergillus versicolor Penicillium funicolosum Chaetomium globosum Aspergillus flavus ATCC 9642 ATCC 11 730 ATCC 11 797 ATCC 6205 ATCC 9643 The fungi were cultivated on V8 agar plates for one week at 28°C. The spores were harvested by adding 10 mL distilled water containing 0.1 g Tween 80/L per plate and the spores loosened with a Drigalski spatula. The spore suspensions were collected in a jar with glass beads and whirled to ensure even distribution of the spores and subsequently filtered through a layer of cotton wool. These cultures are designated stock cultures. The amount of spores were counted in a counting chamber and then diluted with distilled water to a final concentration of 106±2 x 105 spores per mL. Equal volumes of the diluted spore solutions were mixed and used for inoculation of the test specimens. 4.2 Exposure From each type of boards 4 specimens with a dimension

of 7.5 × 7.5 × 1.2 cm were cut. 2 of these specimens were cut from the front side aged specimens and 2 specimens were cut from the back side aged specimens. 647950_Report 3 The specimens were placed in petri dishes and inoculated by pipette with 105 spores per specimen. The petri dishes were placed at 28±2°C and 95±4% relative humidity for 7 weeks and evaluated once a week for fungal growth on the surface. The evaluation was performed according to the scale below from BS 3900:1989 (British Standard Method of test for paints. Part G6. Assessment of resistance to fungal growth). Rating 0 1 2 3 4 5 Appearance No growth Trace of growth up to 1 % coverage of test inoculated area Growth more than 1 % and up to 10% coverage of test inoculated area Growth more than 10 % and up to 30% coverage of test inoculated area Trace of growth more than 30 % and up to 70% coverage of test inoculated area Growth more than 70 % of test inoculated area The exposure took place from 28-08-2015 to 1

6-10-2015. After four weeks of exposure the amount of fungal biomass was determined by the MycoMeter®test. The MycoMeter®-test is based on the detection and quantification of an enzyme that is present in both mycelium and spores of most fungi. MycoMeter®-analysis is not a part of the standard. The MycoMeter®-values are divided into the following three categories: A MycoMeter®value ≤ 25 The level of mould is not above normal background level B 25< MycoMeter®value ≤450 The level of mould is above the normal background level. This is typically due to high concentration of spores in dust deposits but may in some cases indicate the presence of an old damage (mould growth) C MycoMeter®value > 450 The level of mould is high above normal background level due to mould growth 647950_Report 4 5 Results Growth on surfaces Material Exposure (weeks) (Front/back) 3 4 5 1 2 Skamol 15-37-10-3 0/0 0/0 0/0 0/0 Skamol Yantai Haohai 130 0/0 0/0 0/0 Skamol Skamotec 225

In this test, a very large amount of spores was applied to the material that may be deemed unlikely to find in a building, which is consistent with the fact that we find values in category B for the tested material. On the reference material values were found in category B and C which is consistent with the fact that growth was observed on these materials. 647950_Report 5 5.1.1 Skamol 15-37-103 Phot
