AJz1971 Posted October 29, 2020 Report Posted October 29, 2020 Hi all... I am a H+S Officer who works for a large care homes company who would like to have Georgian style solid wood furniture placed in the their care homes bedrooms. To keep a long story short, would they need to have these 'wardrobes, bedside cabinets' etc coated to bring them up to Class 1 (Class C) fire rated standards. I know aboutthe Crib5 for covering and upholstery, but I cant seem to find anything on fire protecting solid wood furniture. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. Quote
Tom Sutton Posted October 31, 2020 Report Posted October 31, 2020 Has far as I am aware is because it is low risk and not subject to any regulation. You would have to hold a blow lamp on it some time to get it to ignite or cut it into small pieces (chips), so it is not of great concern when designing a means of escape scheme, however upholstery is another matter.
