Key player at the European level, CREPIM develops, guaranties and qualifies the fire performances of materials and assemblies

CREPIM is one of the major European Laboratories for development and the approval of materials covered by fire regulations. CREPIM (i) develops, (ii)tests and (iii) certifies 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. This activity is carried out in an Environmentally-Friendly way taking into account the end-of-life product.

Market is reactive, you should be reactive, CREPIM is reactive

Our organisation features four poles: (i) Development and (ii) testing pole, (iii) CE marking- Construction Product Regulation –and Certification pole and (iv) training pole, all focus on fire chemistry and testing . The whole team includes 20 people, featuring chemists for a large part (Msc, doctors and senior scientists)

The Development pole – it is our original activity – to support you in the development of FR formulas:

• Formulation of materials and products to meet fire test requirements and codes
• Development and benchmark of flame retardant solutions taking into account REACH and ROHS regulations and the end of life management of the product in order to be in line with the potential “second life” of material.

Focus on FR resins development, Thermoplastic or thermoset, mainly based on all technologies, featuring intumescence

The Testing pole provides you with a complete set of fire testing methods; to characterize the reaction to fire of you materials and assemblies. Ours teams are fully skilled, trained and recognized to deliver you a direct access to market:

• For European Railway, Fire testing according to EN 45545-2, including annexes A & B for seat
• For French Railway Fire testing according to NF F 16 101/102 and 201
• For American Railway Fire testing according to NFPA 130 , including ASTM E 162 radiant panel
• For Aircraft, Fire testing according to FAR 25.853 + annex F
• For Shipping, Fire testing according to 2012 FTP codes, including EN ISO 5658-2 radiant panel
• For Building Fire testing according to Euroclasses, including EN 13823 SBI fire test ( CREPIM= NB 2137)
• For cars industry, Fire testing according to NF ISO 3795/ FMVSS 302
• For E&E equipments, Fire testing according to NF EN 60695-2-12, UL94
• more 50 fire test method available for seats, upholstery...

The Training pole to upgrade you skill regarding

• Fireproofing chemistry and strategies - Flame retardant systems
• Fire testing method and standardisation
• Fire regulation
• Control laws relating to the triptych [material-material reaction to fire]

The CE marking- Construction Product Regulation –and Certification pole, to lead you on the CE marking route for you construction products

• COFRAC accreditation ISO CEI 17065 (Accreditation 5-0571, Scope on www.cofrac.fr)
• Notified Body N°2137
• Impartiality, confidentiality, independence
• Highly skilled team of worldwide specialists
• A single project leader to pass all the certification steps

CREPIM: an organization focused on flexibility and technical knowledge

• Quote within 24hrs
• 70% of the results are provided within less than 3 weeks
• A technical contact is dedicated in order to accompany you throughout your entire project

This offer, which covers the whole chain from upstream to downstream, is unique in Europe. The board of CREPIM, which gathers academic, institutional and private own partners settle a base on which CREPIM’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.
