Searching for insulation based on its intended use: reliable and verified information
A manufacturer, if it so wishes, can declare the intended use of the insulating materials that it manufactures.
ACERMI checks that a material's characteristics (particularly those related to thermal properties, i.e. traction, compression, behaviour in fire, etc.) actually correspond to the intended usage.
In this manner, ACERMI declares that a given insulating material is suitable for a particular use and that the rules governing its installation must be respected. This is why all ACERMI certificates bear the following annotation:
“The product identified in this certificate is suitable for the intended uses listed in the table below. This product's usage is stipulated in reference documents such as codes of practice (DTU), professional rules or recommendations, technical evaluations and Technical Application Documents. The contracting authority, main contractor, and the company shall ensure that this certificate is used in accordance with the current version of the applicable best practices.”
