Scope

This European standard specifies the safety, performance, packaging and marking requirements including the test methods for firelighters used to light solid fuels in barbecue and grill appliances. The standard covers firelighters supplied as either solid, liquid, thickened liquid or gel formulations. However the use of highly flammable liquids (except in stabilised formulations) is specifically excluded from the scope of this standard as their use as barbecue firelighters is regarded as highly dangerous.
