2 now-how Let our knowhow in fire safety make your success Key player at the European level, develops, guaranties and qualifies the fire performances of materials and assemblies is one of the major European Laboratories for development and the approval of materials covered by fire regulations. develops, guaranties and qualifies the fire performances of materials and assemblies for all concerned areas featuring the mass transportation sectors (railways, aircrafts and boats), in the building, electrical, and textile sectors. Get a direct access to the market with partnership gives high priority to work in close collaboration with companies, enabling them to validate their materials to meet fire-safety requirements in various areas of use. has built an offer to facilitate the market access: Qualify and certify your material is accredited by the COFRAC and recognised by CERTIFER and VERITAS. We deliver test according to NF F /102 (M with French ministry recognition, F and I ranking). These standard are approved by ALSTOM, BOMBARDIER, SIEMENS... Enlarge you market has built an active networking with other big European actors in order to deliver you a global offer of test and caracterisation (British standard BS 6853, German standard DIN 5510, Italian standard UNI 11170). We offer you the total access to the European market by a single quotation. Anticipate the future belongs to the top 5 European laboratories fully equipped to carry on testing according to the future EN , including complete seat testing. It s a unique opportunity to get a real feedback on your products and to set up an action plan to deliver the right product for the market. Market is reactive, you should be reactive, is reactive You need reactivity and quick response. And is organised according two poles: Development and Testing & certification. The whole team features chemists for a large part (Msc, doctors and senior scientists) to give you clear insights regarding fire retardant and material chemistry. Use our testing & certification service to get quickly your test report Quotation in 48 hours, 70% of the test results are delivered within 3 weeks, Results are quickly displayed directly to your desk by secured pipe, Two level of test : standard with full accreditation and recognition low cost and low lead time orientation to secure the relation with you prescriptors. Use our development service and its dedicated experts to anticipate the drift of regulation and to set up action plan to optimise your products and assemblies. The comprehension of fire regulations is of premium importance to anticipate the market trends. has developped a fully complete program to facilitate and reinforce the integration of the khow how in your company.

4 Your key partner for guarantying safer fire proof materials and assemblies 1

5 Key player at the European level, develops, guaranties and qualifies the fire performances of materials and assemblies The increasing research on materials used in the various areas leads to a strong increase in the use of organic polymers. However, the regulation evolution towards a greater fire-safety tends to control the use of many materials and imposes consequently a technological survey and permanent improvements. In this context, is one of the major European Laboratories for development and the approval of materials covered by fire regulations. develops, guaranties and qualifies the fire performances of materials and assemblies for all concerned areas featuring the mass transportation sectors (railways, aircrafts and boats), in the building, electrical, and textile sectors. All these studies underlies the end of life of the product in order to be in line with the potential second live of material and environement. Its activities feature six areas: Development of fire retardants and fire resistant material for concerned applications Assessment of the fire properties of materials: o Flame propagation, o Smoke opacity, o Smoke toxicity. o Thermal insulation o Integrity Participation in French mirror groups and European Standardization Committees on plastics (TC 61), building (TC 92), and railways (TC 256); Recycling of fire-retarded plastics; Functionalization of material and assemblies Training for companies featuring: o Developments and trends in European Fire Regulation regarding key sectors (mass transport, Electric & Electronic Equipments ), o European environmental regulation restricting the use of certain fire-retardant additives; o Latest strategies to fire-retard polymeric materials, This offer, which covers the whole chain from upstream to downstream, is unique in Europe. The board of, which gathers academic, institutional and private own partners settle a base on which s teams can drain scientific knowledge to turn over upper edges services towards customers. Contracts with partners feature a large array of collaboration types, from spot testing and consulting, up to technological development and long term study. The laboratory works on thermoset and thermoplastic resins, on composite materials, as well as fire-retardant paints. 's aim is the development of fire-retardant materials that do not release opaque and toxic smokes. 2

6 Our main objective : to support you company on the whole chain of fire services from the product development up to the final qualification For the manufacturers, represents a key opportunity to be in direct contact with the requirements of the various European markets, and also guarantees them a straight access to these markets. releases each year more than 1500 tests worldwide.the test released by the are recognised worldwide: is accredited by the COFRAC since 1990 on 18 fire tests featuring National, European and international regulation o This accreditation encompasses the ISO CEI since 2004 o The accreditation scope has been enlarged in 2006 to the new European railway standard TS 45545, for which has been the first French laboratory accredited o The scope accreditation has been enlarge in 2007 to the fire testing dedicated to the CE marking of construction production in the framework of the European construction Product Directive. has been recognized in 2003 for the testing and qualification for railway industries by the French certification body CERTIFER NF F 16,101 ; 102 and 201 testing. takes and active part in round robin test campaigns to sustain the reliability of this testing devices for National regulation and also for the new TS european railway regulation has been recognized in 2007 by Veritas for the testing and qualification for the International Maritime Organization. Since 2009, is a notified for the initial testing type in the framework of the construction product directive Since 2010, is recognised by the French Home Office for fire testing and for devivering of the offcial test A twin organization to give better support to our customer gives high priority to work in close collaboration with companies, enabling them to validate their materials to meet European fire-safety requirements in various areas of use. represents a unique chanel to the markets. In order to reinforce our service base and to shorter the lead time to market access, a new organisation has been settled in This new organisation features two poles: (i) Development and (ii) testing. The whole team includes 20 people, featuring chemists for a large part (Msc, doctors and senior scientists) The Development pole focuses on product development and optimization through: European collaborative contracts Private devt contracts Technological developments 3
