Odours can be measured applying the standard ISO 16000-28 "Indoor air - Determination of odour emissions from building products using test chambers". It describes among other procedures the assessment of perceived intensity with comparative scale by a group of panellists. In the study presented here, proposals for further technical development of the methodology are discussed to increase the reproducibility of measurement results. The sampling procedure and evaluation method of perceived intensity are investigated in particu-lar because they have a major influence at the assessment of construction products applying the procedure of the Commit-tee for Health Evaluation of Building Products. © 2021, VDI Fachmedien GmBbH & Co..
