The various Standards establish test procedures for the evaluation of the ignitability of mattresses, upholstered bed bases or mattress toppers, upholstered furniture or seats for rail vehicles when these are exposed to a smouldering cigarette, a gas flame comparable to a matchstick or a paper cushion as the source of ignition.
