ISO/TS 19700 - Controlled equivalence ratio method for the determination of hazardous components of fire effluents – Steady-state tube furnace

RISE offers a evaluation of a sprinkler system's pipe parts due to corrosion, for example as part of the 25-year check according to Appendix K in SS-EN 12845:2015+A1:2020 and section 20.6 in SBF 120:8. By checking the status of the sprinkler pipes, a lifetime estimate is carried out.

When transitioning to PFAS-free extinguishing agents, there is a risk that the new, fluorine-free extinguishing agent becomes contaminated due to PFAS remaining in the system. It is therefore important to clean the system before refilling and to ensure adequate cleaning.

The purpose of fire testing of batteries is to investigate the safety and performance of a battery under various conditions. This is a kind of safety-critical testing that often leads to severe fire and, in some cases, explosion.

Thermal propagation is when an increase in temperature in one part of a battery leads to a chain reaction where the temperature rises rapidly throughout the battery. This implies a major security risk.

Get free access to unique measurement data from fire technical research projects in different product areas. Export and use data for theses, research projects, in product development, as a basis for calculations and much more.

The construction must be able to withstand a fully developed fire and prevent the fire from spreading between, for example, two apartments.

Meet the fire requirements in the BBR for facade systems in multi-storey buildings through the method SP FIRE 105. A full-scale method where the facade is exposed by an apartment fire that escapes out through a window opening. RISE offers testing at our fire lab in Borås, where our world-leading sm…

The products must be able to withstand a fully developed fire and prevent the fire from spreading between, for example, an apartment and a staircase.

RISE tests boards for non-load-bearing purposes and load-bearing boards for constructive use in walls, floors and ceilings and performs manufacturing inspections in production plants. We also have our own method for testing of step through safety that has been developed to meet the Swedish Work Env…

EN 16755 - Durability of reaction to fire performance - Classes of fire-retardant treated wood products in interior and exterior end use applications.

We have a long experience in jet fire testing and has been involved in the development of several jet fire test standards used by the industry and the authorities today. Our facility enables testing of complex combinations of one or several jet fires with varying heat flux levels.

As the first laboratory in the world, we now offer testing of insulation materials that have been exposed to cryogenic spillage. We offer customized tests documenting the materials' resistance.

This method is used to evaluate flame spread properties of vertically oriented textiles such as curtains, drapes, apparel textiles etc by measuring the burning time.

We offer standardized testing of extinguishing installations like sprinkler, water mist systems, gas systems and foam systems for land based, offshore- or maritime applications.

RISE offers testing of photoluminescence materials which are used as marking for example emergency exit in buildings, ships and aircrafts. The material is charged by ambient light and will in event of a power failure light up and provide opportunity to find emergency exits despite darkness.

Tents intended for 150 people and more must be inspected and approved in accordance with the order act for use at public gatherings (e.g. religious practice, theatre, circus) and public events (e.g. sports, dance, carnivals, markets).

TECHNICAL BULLETIN 117-2013. Requirements, Test Procedure and Apparatus for Testing the Smolder Resistance of Materials Used in Upholstered Furniture.

We offer testing of fireplaces and chimneys according to a number of standards.

Investigation of products according to EN 45545-2 - Railway applications - Requirements for fire behaviour of materials and components. Subclause 4.3 - Grouping rules.

Thermal runaway is a stage of rapid self-heating of the battery cell that in the worst case can result in a fire or explosion. Abuse testing of batteries causes thermal runaway and is tested for product development purposes or product approvals in an open or closed reactor.
