BS 5852 Furniture Testing Standard

Date:2024-08-01 11:27:22Clicks:1067

   The BS5852 testing standard is applicable to furniture with soft cushions. This standard defines multiple sources of ignition for testing the flame retardancy of furniture materials.

Specifically, BS5852 fire sources include 0 to 7, with 0 being a flame retardant test cigarette with specific size and burning speed requirements.

The following is the BS 5852 test report for flame-retardant Oxford fabric

   Number 2 to 3 are gas combustion sources: butane flame, which has a relatively long combustion time and flame height, and may pose a significant challenge to the flame retardancy of the material.

   Number 4 to 7 are the ignition sources for wood products: wood block flames, using wood blocks of different qualities as the combustion source, their combustion characteristics and degree of damage to the material may also be more severe

   There are differences in the intensity, duration, and impact of different types of fire sources on furniture materials during testing. For example, gas combustion sources and wood product combustion sources may have different combustion times and temperatures, posing different challenges to the flame retardancy of furniture materials.

   Specifically, these items include but are not limited to sofas, beds, children's furniture, seat cushions, high chairs, mattresses (of any size), pillows, and other personal use furniture for indoor and other residences (including wagons), as well as outdoor personal use furniture (such as garden/yard furniture). These products need to meet the requirements of BS5852 standard for combustion source testing, smoke generation testing, temperature testing, and smoke toxicity testing to ensure that they do not intensify or spread flames in the event of a fire, and that the amount of smoke and toxic gases produced is within a safe range. ‌
