The test is designed to be carried out on a piece of finished furniture, it must be done on unused surfaces. The same material must be processed in the same way as the finished product and be large enough to meet the requirements. It should be done on unused surfaces.
EN 12720 Preparation and Conditioning
Conditioning of the test surface should begin at least one week before the test and the air temperature must be (23 ± 2) °C. The test surface should be substantially flat and of sufficient size.
EN 12720 Test Procedure
Immediately after conditioning, the test should be performed in a test atmosphere of (23 ± 2) °C.
The test surface should be placed horizontally. In cases where the tests are carried out simultaneously, the test surfaces should be separated by at least 50mm.
Before the test, the surface should be gently cleaned with a cleaning cloth.
After placing the test surface in the oven and thermometer or other temperature measuring instruments should be placed in the middle hole of the heat source.
When the test surface cools down, it should be cleaned with a cleaning cloth.
