Passive fire protection
- Accredited as a test laboratory in accordance with DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025 (D-PL 17819-01-00)
- Horizontal notified test centre for testing reaction to fire, fire resistance and external fire performance of construction products in accordance with EU Construction Product Regulation no. 305/2011
- Notification concerning the recognition as a testing, monitoring and certification authority in accordance with state building regulations
The fire protection characteristics are determined in the test centre for structural fire protection. In the course of this the question above all is: How high is the contribution to the occurrence of fire, fire development and fire propagation? With fire tests and fire trials it is also assessed to what extent the functions and characteristics of materials and constructions are maintained in the event of fire.
A classification of the products is possible based on the test results. To some extent general building authority test certificates in accordance with the state building code (LBO) can also be issued.
