DIN EN 1021-1:2013-01

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. The standard contains four annexes: Annex A (informative) Guidance notes for designers and specifiers Annex B (informative) Model report form Annex C (informative) Cleaning of a rig Annex D (normative) Water soaking procedure
