We’ve provided some links to some useful sources of information on all things ‘fire safety’, including third-party certification, fire door installation and general industry knowledge.
BWF-CERTIFIRE is the leading authority on fire door safety. Constant testing and assessment of fire doors and doorsets is necessary to ensure that products will perform to the stated fire rating. All participating members of the BWF-CERTIFIRE Fire Door and Doorset Scheme, including Midland Building Products, are rigorously assessed and audited to provide specifiers with the added security and confidence in the products being selected.
The Fire Sector Federation is a not-for-profit, non-government organisation established to act as a forum for the discussion of fire-related issues of interest to its membership and to evolve as a central source of information on all aspects relating to fire. It brings together representatives from a range of stakeholders which make up the UK Fire Sector.
The Institute of Fire Safety Managers is a professional body of individuals and companies who all share a vision to raise awareness of fire safety at a local, national and international level, while promoting fire prevention, fire protection and reducing the risk from fire as far as reasonable practicable.
The Architectural & Specialist Door Manufacturers Association (ASDMA) is comprised of manufacturing companies of specialist bespoke timber doors and includes suppliers of hardware, seals, glazing and leading UKAS accredited test houses.
