Certified Flame Retardant Products & Insurance Policies

The Association of British Insurers and the Chief Fire Officer’s Association publish the “Joint Code of Practice on the Protection from Fire on Construction Sites and Buildings Undergoing Renovation”, this states that any construction project over the value of £2.5 million or any public building project, should use certified flame retardant temporary site protection products in order to comply with insurance policies. Failure to comply could invalidate your policy and the insurance cover for your project.

Ockwells have made significant investment in the development of a range of flame retardant products that conform to the stringent guidelines of the certifying bodies. These products are independently tested and typically approved through either WarringtonFire (Certifire) or BRE Global (LPCB - Loss Prevention Certification Board), both of whom have the backing of the publishers of the Joint Code of Practice.

The main standards for Protective Covering Materials are TS63 internally and TS62 externally (Certifier) and LPS 1207 internally and LPS 1215 externally (LPCB). Certified flame retardant products are clearly marked within this website and Ockwells product literature.
