The ensuring of safety has top priority
If used appropriately, building products must not present any hazards/dangers for the public safety and order, life and health. Even if all building materials are in Germany and Europe tested in terms of their fire behavior before installation there are still approx. 600 people in Germany who lose their lives in fires. This number was published by the GDV-press forum of the non-life insurance companies Wiesbaden (GDV = German Insurance Association). This shows that a continuous inspection of the used building materials is inevitable.
Inspection for a long-term quality assurance!
We examine building productions which have to be classified in terms of their fire behavior according to the provisions of the regional building laws (see venue regulations).
In doing so, the sample material may be taken from production, from the trade or from the building/construction.
Step by step to the certificate of conformity
| A) | Testing |
| Execution of the aforementioned tests by accredited/notified testing centers | |
| B) | Inspection |
| 1. | You posses a proof of usability (abP, or Z or ZiE) or |
| 2. | have the proof of usability issued by us in form of an abP. |
| 3. | You close an inspection contract with us.. |
| 4. | We will visit you for an announced first inspection visit, appraise the QA-system and take samples for the re-examinations. The flammability tests will then be carried out by us, the other tests will be carried out by the competent authorities/testing centers. |
| 5. | The results of the inspection are documented in the inspection report. |
| 6. | The subsequent inspection visits will then take place unannounced and at least once a year. |
