BWF and BRE collaborate on fire safety

摘要

THE BRITISH Woodworking Federation (BWF) and the Building Research Establishment (BRE) have joined forces to'raise awareness' of the importance of fire doors.This alliance also aims to 'help advance' fire door design, manufacturing and installation standards, with the organisations noting that these doors 'are the first line of defence against devastating fires'. Despite saving lives and protecting property when 'properly built, installed and maintained', many are 'badly fitted, non-compliant, left propped open or damaged', putting potentially 'millions of lives at stake'.
