This British Standard describes methods of test for the ignitability of mattresses when subjected to smouldering and flaming types of primary and secondary ignition sources of differing severities. It does not include the ignitability of the bed base.
The following test options are described:
- mattress alone tested with primary ignition sources (section 2);
- mattress tested with secondary ignition sources composed of known bedcovers (section 3);
- mattress tested with secondary ignition sources simulating unknown bedcovers (section 4).
