FiremanBrand™ Flame Gaurd has developed a cutting-edge formula that protects natural wood without compromising its natural beauty. This wood sample has been treated on both sides with our innovative product. Key Benefits: – Preserves Natural Color: The treatment does not discolor the wood, allowing its natural grain and beauty to shine through. – Versatile Finishing: The treated wood can be sealed with water-based varnishes or paints, offering flexibility in customization. – Superior Fire Protection: The treatment creates a protective crust that inhibits the spread of flame.
Our Proudly South African flame resistant retardant is designed to prevent the spread of flames by causing treated natural wood to char rather than ignite and smoulder. This significantly reduces the risk of fire spreading and minimizes smoke inhalation—the leading cause of fire-related fatalities, according to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA).
FiremanBrand™ Flame Gaurd has been successfully tested according to SANS 10177 Part 9 and meets BS 5852 Part 2 and EN 13 501-1: Small-scale burning characteristics of building materials: ignition flame (not just a smoulder/cigarette burn test), flame spread and heat contribution. “Fire testing of materials, components and elements used in buildings.”
