Consultation<br />
<strong>Technical</strong> data should emphasise the need for consultation with the <strong>FeRFA</strong> manufacturer and a contrac<strong>to</strong>r<br />
member <strong>to</strong> ensure the product selected is fit for purpose. Select<strong>in</strong>g a res<strong>in</strong> floor<strong>in</strong>g system based solely on<br />
physical test results, usually determ<strong>in</strong>ed on a labora<strong>to</strong>ry scale, is not advised. <strong>FeRFA</strong> members have experience<br />
of millions of successful projects <strong>in</strong> most work<strong>in</strong>g environments and will be able <strong>to</strong> recommend the correct<br />
product for the job.<br />
Summary<br />
<strong>Technical</strong> data is necessary <strong>to</strong> determ<strong>in</strong>e the difference between the different BS types of floor<strong>in</strong>g (type 1 – 8)<br />
but specifiers us<strong>in</strong>g res<strong>in</strong> floor<strong>in</strong>g for the first time should be aware that, because each type has several sub<br />
groups, correct specification will only be guaranteed by consultation.<br />
Always purchas<strong>in</strong>g and consult<strong>in</strong>g with a <strong>FeRFA</strong> member will ensure success.<br />
