How to Find Out if Your Passive Fire Protection (PFP) Provider is Certified<\/h1>\n

Passive fire protection (PFP) plays a crucial role in building safety and preventing the spread of fire. This means as a business owner, you want the confidence and peace of mind that all your PFP systems and products meet the highest standards.<\/p>\n

Importance of Passive Fire Protection Accreditation & Certification<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Industry certifications and accreditations help to set benchmarks and expectations for external PFP providers. This helps consumers find suppliers who are reputable, reliable and knowledgeable when it comes to designing, installing and maintaining a PFP system. Certification helps customers know any work carried out will meet a specific standard, and when it comes to fire safety, this is extremely important.<\/p>\n

In this guide we provide an overview of some of the key certification and accreditation companies in the passive fire protection industry as well as details on how you can find out if your PFP provider is certified by them.<\/p>\n

All certification schemes in this article have been accredited by UKAS.<\/em><\/p>\n

IFC Certification<\/strong><\/p>\n

IFC (International Fire Consultants) Certification is an internationally recognised provider of fire safety certification. They offer a comprehensive range of schemes \u2013 including product certification, installer certification and site inspection services \u2013 all of which are designed to provide assurance and transparency to end-users.<\/p>\n

In order to become IFC certified installers of fire protection measures, companies must undergo a variety of inspections and tests. They are also continually reassessed with random inspections to ensure capabilities and compliance is maintained.<\/p>\n

By ensuring anyone carrying out passive fire protection work at your property is IFC certified, you can be confident in their ability to deliver the highest quality PFP measures.<\/p>\n
