CMYUK, the exclusive distributor of PVC free Kavalan in the UK and Ireland, has announced that Kavalan Sunlight Weldable Frontlit Banner and Kavalan Spiderweb 300 Mesh Banner have both successfully passed the stringent Certifire – TS62 certification programme.
These products will now bear the Certifire mark and once printed, can be used on any scaffolded buildings and construction sites, along with the many other promotional and branding applications for which banner and mesh are used.
Certifire is an independent third party certification scheme that assures performance, quality, reliability and traceability of products and systems. It is recognised by regulatory authorities worldwide as an international mark of fire safety across a diverse range of products.
The Certifire – TS62 guarantees that temporary printed protective coverings used on construction sites have the highest level of fire protection and comply with stringent safety performance specifications.
‘The Kavalan range is very impressive and renders traditional PVC banner obsolete. Not only now has it been given the ultimate fire certification, but it also passed the BS 3424 pt 4.6 tensile strength test. Taya, the manufacturer of Kavalan has also put it through the rigorous lifecycle analysis programme to measure its environmental impact. Kavalan makes the switch from traditional PVC very compelling,’ said Michael Crook, CMYUK, business development director, who added, ‘It delivers on strength, performance, safety and the environment. With fire safety for construction now uppermost on the agenda, anyone involved in this activity will need to specify materials that evidentially demonstrate they adhere to robust certifiable standards.’
