All Premdor Moulded, Veneer, Foil, Laminate and Paingrade

internal fi re doors are all BWF-Certifi re accredited.

The BWF-CERTIFIRE Fire Door Scheme was established to

improve the standard of fi re doors across the supply chain.

The Scheme is operated and managed by the British

Woodworking Federation (BWF).

Fire doors purchased from manufacturers who are members of the scheme means:

• Products will fulfi l the demand for certifi ed fi re doors

• All Fire doors are part of the market leading 3rd party accreditation scheme

Manufacturers often make claims that

their products are tested and achieve a

certain performance level. But did the

products pass that test? And if so, then

how do they prove it?

It is important for a manufacturer to

demonstrate that the products they

make are consistently ‘fi t for purpose’

and that passing the fi re test wasn’t a

one-off event.

Third-party certifi cation tests and verifi es

a fi re door’s design, performance,

manufacturing process and quality

assurance from manufacture to the point

of installation.

The company is independently audited to

ensure that all manufacturing processes

and manufacturing control systems are in

place to ensure consistent performance

with the product that was fi re tested.

The product is subjected to regular

scrutiny, with frequent testing taking

place on standard products to ensure

that passing the test wasn’t just a once-

only event.

Make sure your fi re doors are safe

and you fulfi l your responsibilities by

only using third-party certifi cated and

accredited fi re doors and compatible

components.

Why choose products with third party accreditation?

The BWF-CERTIFIRE Fire Door and

Doorset Scheme, established by the

fi re door manufacturing industry, aims

to promote the importance of using

third party certifi cated fi re doors as vital

component of any passive fi re plan.

The Scheme offers clear and simple

methods of tracing a fi re door back

through all stages of manufacture to

ensure the quality of manufacture and

maintain the certifi cation. It also acts to

bring together fi re door manufacturers,

their suppliers, door converters,

merchants and installers to work in an

alliance across the supply chain.

The whole purpose of the Scheme is

to give confi dence in the quality and

performance of fi re doors to specifi ers,

enforcement authorities, building

owners and occupiers.

The Scheme’s certifi cation partner

audits, tests and verifi es a fi re door’s

design, performance, manufacturing

process and the associated

procedures, quality assurance,

and the audit trail from manufacture to

installation.
