Need help specifying?

Treatment depends on the material, the venue's fire requirements and the application method. Talk to us before you treat a whole build.

Flame retardants reduce flammability; they do not make materials fireproof. Always test on a sample and follow the venue's fire authority requirements and the product data sheet.
