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.
