DIN 4102 – standard applicable to Germany Fire behaviour/low flammability General building inspectorate certificate [ABP – Allgemein bauaufsichtliches Prüfzeugnis]. This standard refers to building materials and elements for the public and private areas of a building (e.g. walls, roofs, interior fittings, stairs etc.).
Applicability: paints that have a general building inspectorate certificate [ABP] may be used for building materials according to building regulation list A part 2 2015/2 edition. The certificate is required for the use of building elements in public buildings. The paints are subject to third-party inspection. Paints that are classed as low flammable under DIN 4102-B1 must be used on (according to DIN 4102-B1) permitted chipboard, including veneered chipboard, to satisfy test criteria. If used on other substrates, DIN 4102-B2 only is required for compliance. Any prescribed quantities must be satisfied in full. Fire behaviour under DIN 4102 part 1 is subdivided as follows:
Building materials class A = non-combustible
Building materials class B = combustible
Building materials class B1 = low flammability
Building materials class B2 = normal flammability
Building materials class B3 = easily flammable
