The certificate assures that bathroom PODs produced by Forta PRO are durable, environmentally-friendly and sustainable for use in hotels, apartments, student housing or in medical facilities.
RISE is an independent, State-owned research institute, which offers unique expertise and over 100 testbeds and demonstration environments for future-proof technologies, products and services. The Swedish approval states that “The product satisfies the requirements set forth in chapter 8, 4 § 3 PBL… and are therefore approved in accordance with the provisions of the following sections of Boverket Building Regulations (BBR)”.
Kristaps Mikelsons, Head of Technical Department, Forta PRO commented: “Swedish regulations slightly differ from other standards so we also had to present our stress calculations of structure which were afterward evaluated by RISE structural engineers.
