Our specially designed test hall provides ideal conditions for facade tests according to both the SP Fire 105 standard and the expected new European facade test standard.
With its impressive ceiling height, efficient smoke-monitoring system, and capacity for high fire loads, the facility also supports a wide range of additional projects and tests under controlled conditions.

Our skilled experts guide you from the very first design ideas and help identify and solve potential fire safety challenges. We often recommend starting with one or more small-scale tests before investing in a full-scale classification test. This allows you to explore different construction variants and gain a solid foundation for deciding when a full-scale test is the right next step. The process is efficient and shortens your products’ time to market.
With our testing facilities and expertise, you can future-proof your fire test results. We are accredited to carry out full-scale facade tests according to the Nordic standard SP Fire 105. However, our test hall is ready for the future as it easily accommodates test specimens up to 8 metres in height, which is expected to become the requirement in the forthcoming European standard. DBI is part of the standardisation committee developing the new standard, ensuring we are always up to date with the latest knowledge in the field.
The facade hall gives you the freedom to build your façade at the pace that best suits your project. With 2 test rigs, there is plenty of time to let the construction dry when needed. If you’re on a tighter schedule — for instance, travelling from abroad — we can optimise the process to save valuable time. The hall can handle a high fire load and is also ideal for special projects that require excellent extinguishing capabilities under controlled conditions. Our team of skilled technicians and builders have extensive experience setting up fire tests and can assist in building all types of materials and constructions.
Following a successful test, we will provide a complete report within 30 days — containing all the information you need for the final approval and certification of your product. The fire test is, of course, thoroughly documented and recorded using 3 video cameras.
Our testing facilities are conveniently located just outside Copenhagen, close to both the airport and the motorway. This makes it easy for you to get here — no matter where in Denmark or Europe you’re based. We work with many international customers who value the excellent accessibility of our facilities.
Our 3,000 square meter headquarters near Copenhagen houses a modern fire laboratory with various furnaces for almost all types of fire tests.
This makes it possible for us to conduct almost all types of fire tests, from small-scale to full-scale, with items as high as 4.48 meters.
