Hello everyone! We are glad to share some important news from KINDUS.
We have officially been awarded the FM 4880 and FM 4881 certifications by FM Approvals, the world’s leading testing and certification body for property loss prevention.
In the global industrial sector, “FM Approved” is more than just a label—it is a “Symbol” of trust. In this post, we’ll explain why these certifications matter and how they provide a strategic advantage to our clients.
1. What is FM Approvals?
FM Approvals is the independent testing arm of ‘FM Global,’ the world’s largest commercial property insurance company. Their standards are notoriously rigorous. Unlike standard building codes, FM testing focuses on Business Continuity—ensuring that even in the event of a disaster, your facility remains standing and operational.
2. FM 4880 & FM 4881 : A Total Safety Solution
By achieving both certifications, our products now offer a “Dual Shield” that protects your facility from both internal fire risks and external natural hazards.
-
FM 4880 (Internal Fire Safety)
-
The Focus : Fire spread prevention.
-
The Value : This certification proves that our panels and interior materials effectively inhibit the spread of flames. In the event of a fire, it prevents a localized spark from turning into a catastrophic facility-wide disaster.
-
-
FM 4881 (External Structural Integrity)
-
The Focus : Resistance to extreme weather.
-
The Value : This evaluates how the exterior wall system withstands high wind pressure (hurricanes/typhoons), hail, and water leakage. It ensures the “shell” of your building remains intact during nature’s harshest moments.
