This is a full revision of the standard which principal change is a clarification of progressive smouldering ignition; minor editorial changes have also been made. It also clearly states the sequence of tests on a sample either with bed covers or without bed covers.   


Flammability is the critical aspect for all types of upholstered furniture. Domestic products must meet the specific regulations in the UK. Upholstered furniture and beds for use in hotels and other contract situations must also meet the regulations with higher requirement.
