### Issue Image:
![[Pasted image 20250113172657.png]]
## Issue Description:
- For a product to be deemed non-combustible, a 1530.1 Certificate shall be provided for:
- all parts of the product
- or a singular test certificate listing all of its components.
- Some unscrupulous suppliers will offer a 1530.1 Certificate for one component of the product and claim the whole product is suitable.
- Manufacturers have done this for foil backed rigid foam insulation products, they will provide a certificate for the foil, but not the foam
- To date I haven't seen a non-combustible foam insulation product.
## Actions to Prevent this Issue:
- [ ] Where a non-combustible product is required the Architect shall take special care to check that certificate supplied is truly reflective of what will be installed.
