Testing and process
certification

Through rigorous testing procedures and meticulous process certification, we guarantee that every step of our production process adheres to industry-leading protocols.

UNI EN ISO 9001:2015

The UNI EN ISO 9001:2015 standard ensures control of the production and service delivery process.

UNI EN ISO 14001:2015

This standard specifies the requirements for an environmental management system that an organization can use to develop its environmental performance.

UNI ISO 45001:2018

The 2018 UNI ISO 45001 standard “Occupational health and safety management systems – Requirements and guidance for use” is the first international standard to define minimum standards of good practice for worker protection worldwide.

Finishes testing and
certification

DFV finishes are certified internationally and guaranteed to be a quality product – safe according to current regulations and durable even when exposed to adverse weather conditions.

QUALICOAT

Internationally recognized product certification for painted aluminum ensures that the raw materials, production process, and finished product meet stringent quality standards. This assurance is upheld through continuous testing conducted in both the company laboratory and the Qualital certified laboratory.

QUALICOAT SEASIDE

The extension to SEASIDE class specifically pertains to products used for architectural applications in marine areas, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosive elements such as saltwater and coastal weather conditions. This classification guarantees that the products meet stringent quality standards through comprehensive testing conducted in both the company’s laboratory and the Qualital certified laboratory.

QUALICOAT QUALIDECO

International certification related to wood-effect decorated aluminum, ensuring that the raw material used, the production process implemented, and the finished decorated product have guaranteed and recognized quality in all countries worldwide. The Qualideco brand also entails tests and checks to be carried out within the company and in laboratories certified by Qualicoat.

AAMA 2604

AAMA 2604 serves as an intermediate benchmark for top-tier organic coatings applied to architectural aluminum elements. These coatings provide superior durability against weathering, chalking, fading, and gloss reduction.

AAMA 2605

AAMA 2605 represents the pinnacle of exterior performance standards. Coatings meeting this specification consist of a 70% fluoropolymer resin base, showcasing exceptional resilience against humidity, color alteration, chalking, gloss reduction, and chemical exposure.

Product testing and
certifications

ForMe battens and claddings have gained incredible certifications to meet the highest international standards in terms of fire, wind and impact resistance, sound-absorbing power, applications to ceiling and much more.

EPD Certification

ForMe Design SKIN battens and cladding achieved the EPD certification. By obtaining this certification, ForMe Design can provide architects, builders, and developers with reliable, third-party-verified data about the environmental footprint of SKIN Battens. This ensures that every project using SKIN Battens aligns with the highest standards for environmental responsibility.

Wind and impact resistance

According to the certification recognized by IRCCOS (Research and Certification Institute for Sustainable Constructions), the Skin coating systems have excellently passed the test “Experimental verification of the performance of resistance to wind load under dynamic pressure and impact resistance” ensuring excellent performance and maintaining the initial conditions both in the integrity of the elements and in the coupling system.

Sound-absorbing power

ForMe’s products have recently been tested according to EN ISO 354:2003 (measurement of sound absorption in reverberation chamber) and 11654:1997 (acoustic absorbers for construction – evaluation of sound absorption) at the CSI Institute of Bollate obtaining very interesting results: noise is reduced in the environment by about 20%.

Application to the suspended ceiling

At the CSI Institute, ForMe Design’s battens and claddings have also been tested for use as a suspended ceiling according to EN 13964: 2014 (suspended ceilings – requirements and test methods) passing tests with uniformly distributed load for a predetermined duration of time obtaining the Class A classification 34.91 N / m².

Fire reaction

At the CSI Institute ForMe Design’s products have obtained the reaction to fire class A2/S2 according to EN 13051-1:2019 (fire classification of construction products and building elements – part 1: classification using test data from reaction to the fire).
