How can I find out whether my mattress meets the fire safety regulations required of a landlord?

I’m renting my flat and have an old mattress for the tenant. However, I’m not sure how to identify if it meets the fire safety regulations. Would anyone know where I could find out?

If its fire resistant it will have a label attached. if its not there you cannot chance it.

    Swap it with the landlord.
    Guarantee with safety regulation.
    The tenant have the new one.
    The landlord keep his old one.
