AS 3744.2: Assessment of the ignitability of upholstered furniture Part 2: Ignition source - match flame equivalent
AS 3744.2 Fire test of upholstered furniture -Standard Brief：
This part of AS 3744 lays down a method of test to assess the ignitability of material combinations, such as covers and fillings used in upholstered seating when subjected
to a small flame as an ignition source.
The tests measure only the ignitability of a combination of materials used in upholstered seating and not the ignitability of a particular finished item of furniture incorporating these materials. They give an indication of, but cannot guarantee, the ignition behaviour of the finished item of furniture.
