We will! Wood International Agency Ltd will provide multiple types of documentation to support your needs. These documents include:-

• Test Reports
• Field Of Application Reports (FOA/FOAR)
• Extended Application Field Of Application Reports (EXAP)
• Classification Reports
• Scheme Certificates
• Technical Manuals
• Data Sheets

A "Test Certificate" doesn't really exist, although we have seen some documents titled as such, but usually in-house adaptations of one of the above documents. 

In the most part, if these documents are complete and finalised, you will be able to download them from the relevant system page. If you can't find what you need, contact us and we will provide you information without the need for any registration, non-disclosure agreements or other obstacles. 

DoPs (or Declarations of Performance) are available for a number of panel products (and other Construction Products for that matter), required for CE/UKCA Marking. 

These documents are to help ensure a level playing field for alike products by standardising the performance criteria and test/classification standards that the products must declare against. This enables purchasers of those products to make decisions based on their needs. 

Door blanks themselves do not have a harmonised standard to declare against, and therefore there is no option to provide a DoP for door blanks as a product. We can however provide various documents relating to the performance of each product/system we supply, including:-

• Test Reports
• Field Of Application Reports (FOA/FOAR)
• Extended Application Field Of Application Reports (EXAP)
• Classification Reports
• Scheme Certificates
• Technical Manuals
• Data Sheets

In the most part, if these documents are complete and finalised, you will be able to download them from the relevant system page. If you cant find what you need, contact us and we will provide you information without the need for any registration, non-disclosure agreements or other obstacles. 

Wood International Agency Limited fully supports transparency for fire safety construction products. An interesting and relevant couple of paragraphs from Building a Safer Future –

We firmly believe that we as an industry have a duty to support this. Businesses that continue to lack transparency could risk being excluded from projects. Whilst there are understandable reservations surrounding the disclosure of Intellectual Property, we really are in a new age. 

Whilst Third-Party Certification is a positive contribution towards safer buildings, it isn’t an insurance policy against litigation or a guarantee for acceptance by regulators. WIA provides information and documents using simple terms to determine where and how our products can be placed on the market that stands up to scrutiny.

You can find all our documents (including test reports, FoAs, etc.) at https://wearedoors.co.uk/systems. Our team are on hand to assist whenever you need us. 

WIA has great relationships with some of the best and most popular component suppliers in the industry. This enables us to keep abreast of new products coming to market and gives us a good basis for collaborative testing and system development. 

You can find information about our partners here.

We are completely transparent with our evidence and ensure tested products are fully detailed in our Test Reports, Field of Application Reports and all other associated documents. This ensures users of our doorset systems can design doorsets for their projects or product range with complete confidence about what other components are included in each system.

At WIA, we don't see the need for reselling components (such as ironmongery and seals) where we don't add value. We stick to a simple model of testing with our partners and publishing the evidence openly so that manufacturers can make their own choices about what products and supply chains suit their needs. 

If you can't see evidence for the product you're looking for in our systems, get in touch - we may have evidence coming available or we could even consider including in an upcoming test program. 

Wood International Agency Ltd develop doorset systems through thorough and rigorous testing, independent auditing and certification of our products in configurations that our customers, project specifiers or our partners want to place on the market. 

The various documentation generated from this testing and associated activities (including Test Reports, Field of Application Reports, Classification Reports, etc.) are made available to users of our products, whether sourced directly or indirectly.

Additionally, the evidence made available can often be used to support manufacturer's subscription to Third-Party Certification schemes, giving fire door manufacturers an opportunity to broaden the scope of products they offer over and above when they may have tested and certified independently. 

This makes Wood International Agency Limited the "System Provider" or "Systems House". Access to Wood International Agency Ltd evidence is subject to a two way agreement, often called a "Letter of Authority" or "Permission Letter". 

If you would like to discuss access to WIA evidence and see how we can support your business or project, contact our team.

All our door products are timber based, so a lot of the requirements for storage, handling and processing are in keeping with that of other natural and engineered timber products. If you want finished goods manufactured from our product range to perform as expected, especially when it comes to fire doors and fires safety products, it is important that the materials used are treated appropriately.

Wood International Agency Ltd has produced a Care of Timber Doors information sheet to help manufacturers and distributers ensure our products behave as intended. 

WIA Ltd supports this initiative by purchasing solid timber door cores from Indonesia (such as Therman and Flamebreak) that are covered by FLEGT regulations.

FLEGT helps to mitigate the chance of illegal timber entering the supply chain in countries that have implemented voluntary partnership agreements (VPAs) with the UK & Europe – currently only Indonesia has this agreement.

To explain in more detail, and quoting from our government’s website:

The Timber and Timber Products Placing on the Market Regulations (UKTR) and UK FLEGT Regulations apply in Great Britain from 1 January 2021 but the requirements remain the same as under EUTR.

Timber supply chains are regulated to ensure harvesting practices are legal, encourage sustainable harvesting practices and support global forest governance. Businesses trading in timber and timber products must take steps to ensure that they originate from legal sources.

Timber imported from countries that have implemented voluntary partnership agreements (VPAs) with the UK – currently only Indonesia – must be accompanied by a FLEGT licence.

More information about FLEGT from the UK Government can be found here Regulations: timber and FLEGT licences - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

So FLEGT is recognised on a national level to mitigate the chance of illegal timber entering the supply chain and support global forest governance, Wood International Agency supports this initiative to maintain our global forest industry and utilise only legally sourced timber products.
