Flame retardants are a key component in increasing survival chances during a fire event as they allow longer escape times as well as longer response time for fire responders. They can prevent fires from starting, limit the spread of fire and minimize fire damage.
Some flame retardants work effectively on their own; others act as “synergists” to increase the fire protective benefits of other flame retardants.
Flame retardants are added to or incorporated into different materials or they are applied as a treatment to materials such as textiles and plastics.
They are the hidden protection against the potentially devastating impact of fire in so many products that we take for granted.
