BS EN 1021-1 Fire test to Upholstered Furiture - Standard Title：
BS EN 1021-1:2006 Furniture – Assessment of the ignitability of upholstered furniture – Part 1: Ignition source smouldering cigarette
BS EN 1021-1 Fire test to Upholstered Furiture - Standard Brief：
This European Standard specifies a test method to assess the ignitability of material combinations, such as covers and fillings used in upholstered seating, when subjected to a smouldering cigarette as an ignition source.
The test measures only the ignitability of a combination of materials used in upholstered seating and not the ignitability of a particular finished item of furniture incorporating these materials. They give an indication of, but cannot guarantee, the ignition behaviour of the finished item of furniture.
