Fire testing standards

Fire testing standards are established guidelines used to evaluate how materials, products, or structures perform when exposed to fire. These standards ensure safety by measuring factors like how long something resists burning, how quickly it releases heat or smoke, and whether it helps spread fire. Tests are carried out under controlled conditions to simulate real-world scenarios, helping manufacturers and authorities determine if a product is safe for use in buildings, appliances, or transportation. Adhering to these standards helps protect people and property by ensuring fire resistance and safety are reliably maintained.
