12.0 Technical Invesgaon – Tests
12.1 Tests were carried out and the results assessed against BS EN 12380: 2002 to deternine:
• impact resistance (drop test)
• airghtness aer endurance at negave temperature
• airghtness before and aer endurance at posive temperature
• opening pressure
• airow capacity
13.0 Technical Invesgaon
13.1 The manufacturing process applied to these products are controlled with FloPlast BS EN ISO 9001: 2015 Quality
Management System (Cercate No. FM501414). These processes are regularly audited by representaves of BSI to
ensure connued compliance with our detailed processes.
13.2 FloPlast’s valves are subject to type tesng and audit test as deterrmine with the Kitemark scheme to which they
are cered, (Cercate KM512474). Tesng is undertaken on behalf of BSI at the Building Research Establishment also
known as BRE.
