Testing Fire Resistance: How Our Furnace Meets Global Standards (EN, ISO, ASTM)

Testing Fire Resistance: How Our Furnace Meets Global Standards (EN, ISO, ASTM)

πŸ”₯ Fire Resistance Test Furnace – Key Equipment for Structural Fire Safety Testing

In today’s construction and infrastructure industries, fire resistance testing has become a critical step in ensuring building safety and regulatory compliance. With the growing demand for fire-rated materials, modern architecture must meet strict international standards such as EN 1363, ISO 834, and ASTM E119.

At Gorban Tester Ltd, we design and manufacture advanced Fire Resistance Test Furnaces tailored for testing the fire endurance of a wide range of building elements.


πŸ”₯ What is a Fire Resistance Test?

A fire resistance test evaluates how long a material or structural component can withstand fire exposure while maintaining its load-bearing capacity, integrity, and insulation. These tests simulate real fire conditions through a controlled open flame, following specific temperature-time curves defined by global standards.

Our furnace systems accurately replicate fire temperature rise curves to assess the fire performance of materials in vertical or horizontal test setups.


πŸ—οΈ What Can Be Tested?

Our vertical and horizontal fire test furnaces support a wide range of components:

  • Building Structures: Beams, columns, slabs, suspended ceilings
  • Fire Protection Products: Fire doors, fire dampers, shutters, fire glass
  • Service Installations: Cable trays, busways, fire-resistant pipes
  • Architectural Elements: Fire-rated curtain walls, windows
  • Mechanical Supports: Anti-seismic brackets, hangers

Each furnace is engineered for uniform heating, precise temperature control, and compliance with certification standards, making it ideal for:

  • National fire testing laboratories
  • Certification and inspection bodies
  • Construction product manufacturers
  • Fireproof material R&D centers

🌐 Why Fire Testing Matters?

With stricter building codes, insurance requirements, and increasing fire safety awareness, manufacturers must demonstrate compliance and performance through certified testing. Fire resistance data not only ensures product reliability but also plays a crucial role in architectural approvals, project bids, and international trade.
