You can enhance the fire properties and fire-resistance rating of wood by treating it with Kiilto’s Fireproof flame retardant. Kiilto Fireproof flame retardants are environmentally friendly and do not affect the other properties or appearance of wood.
Wood has excellent properties: it is energy-efficient, durable, renewable, easy to work with and pleasing to the eye. However, untreated wood is highly flammable, which makes it less attractive for a number of applications such as building materials.
Treating wood with Kiilto’s environmentally friendly Fireproof flame retardants can improve its fire properties and fire-resistance rating. Fireproofed wood is mainly used in roof structures, walls, wood panels and furniture. Such treatment can achieve the highest possible wood fire-resistance rating for building elements, B,s1-d0.
