fds (fire door systems) is part of Distinction Doors, the largest supplier of glass reinforced polyester (GRP) composite door blanks in the UK. fds offers a fully compliant FD30 composite fire door system, Neuma fds. \nNeuma fds has consistently proven fire resistance with 44 individual test specimens subject to 22 bi-directional fire tests, achieving an average of 45 minutes integrity.\nThe fire door system was independently tested to EN1634-1: 2014 by EU notified body test houses. To address variables in test laboratories and prove consistent performance, Neuma fds experienced the same test methods across three countries and was installed in both rigid and flexible supporting wall construction. Every fire test was filmed.\nThe fire door system not only demonstrates integrity against fire but also delivers on ambient smoke control (EN1634-3:2004), security (PAS24:2022), weather (BS 6375), sound insulation (Approved Document E) and thermal performance (Approved Document L). \nNeuma fds meets the requirements of Approved Document B, underpinned by a robust third-party certification scheme.\nfds insists that all stages of the supply chain up to and including doorset manufacture are third-party certified to the BM Trada Q-Mark Fire Door Manufacturer certification scheme. \nThe Neuma fds door blank meets the requirements of the Q-Mark Door Blank scheme to STD 047. The fire entrance door range is stocked and distributed under Q-Mark STD 171. \nIt is available nationwide through a network of official fds doorset manufacturing partners, each selected by fds and audited to meet the non-mandatory requirements of Q-Mark STD 170.\nSpecifiers can choose from solid or glazed options, either with or without overhead glazed fanlights.
