What is non-domestic furniture flammability testing?

As a retailer selling non-domestic furniture within the UK, you need to ensure that your products comply with the flammability standards regarding non-domestic furniture.

Products such as office furniture, contract furniture, hospitality furniture all fall under the non-domestic umbrella; however testing is carried out on each individual component, rather than the product as a whole.

Non-domestic furniture flammability testing applies to the following furniture components:

  • Outer covers (leather and textile)
  • Foams and fillings
  • Non-visible covers
  • Interliners

 

Why test your non-domestic furniture for flammability?

It is a legal requirement within the UK that all non-domestic furniture is compliant with BS 7176 before being eligible for sale.

It is also vital that your products comply with this standard to provide assurance for insurance and contractual purposes.
