FRENCH SOURCING

The majority of our veneers and plywoods are sourced from France, primarily from the regions of Burgundy, Franche Comté and Grand Est, and more specifically from the Brugère company.

The quality

We conduct an ISO 9001 compliant process in terms of documentation and production monitoring.

Fire classification

In fire safety, "reaction to fire" and "resistance to fire" are two different concepts. They are codified at the French and European levels in a highly regulated fashion. Reaction to fire describes the material's behaviour as fuel for fire (combustibility, flammability), defined by the M classification.

In France, there is a classification system (NF P. 92.507 standard), composed of 5 categories, which defines materials' reaction to fire: the categories range from M0 to M4, with M4 being the most flammable and M0 the least flammable.

All pieces supplied by our company can be of class M3 or M4, depending on the thickness. If necessary, we can apply a class M1 coating (flame retardant glue and/or varnish).
