    Our New Warringtonfire Laboratory in Birchwood Park Hits Commissioning Stage Our new $30m laboratory at Birchwood Park, Warrington, is now at the ‘third fix’ stage, with four out of a planned seven of its state-of-the-art fire resistance testing furnaces already installed, marking significant progress towards its completion and commissioning. In August 2023, we announced we were building a brand new 101,000sqft facility. This significant investment enables us to expand our capacity and meet increasing demand for fire resistance testing of critical fire safety products and systems, such as fire doorsets, intumescent coatings for steel protection, and other passive fire protection solutions. Ten months into our projected 17-month build programme, four furnaces have been fitted and are ready to enter the commissioning phase shortly. The furnaces will be supported by a raft of technology to carefully manage air quality both during and after the testing process. 👉 Finish reading our latest press release on our new fire testing facility: https://ow.ly/1hJu50Se4eZ 📅 Book your Birchwood Park testing for 2025.
