At these unique facilities in Spain, companies will test their façade products and solutions to ensure their fire performance
Ensuring fire safety is one of the priorities for companies working in new construction or refurbishment. Therefore, to ensure the future of buildings and guarantee good performance in the event of an exterior fire, the regulation is increasingly demanding and states that the solutions included in building projects must have technical tests and justification.
In this context, the TECNALIA research and technological development centre, a benchmark in product testing, evaluation and certification, has launched its large-scale fire testing laboratory for façades, which is unique in Spain, after obtaining the first ENAC (National Accreditation Entity) accreditation in this field. Companies will be able to test their products and innovative developments there to ensure their viability and effectiveness, obtain the corresponding evaluation of the results of the test report and accelerate their arrival on the market.
