Zeroflame Fire Retardant Treatment Sample

Zeroflame Fire Retardant Treatment 250ml Sample is a water based, clear solution that soaks into wood to leave the appearance of the timber virtually unchanged. Applied by brush, roller, spray, or immersion it achieves Euroclass B s2 d0 (replaces UK Classes ‘0’ and ‘1’ BS 476 Part 6/7*) on solid timbers. Zeroflame Fire Retardant Treatment can be used inside or out and the fire retardant properties will remain active for the lifetime of the substrate.

Zeroflame Fire Retardant Treatment soaks into the woods surface, without leaving a clear glaze on top like a varnish. It then dries with virtually no evidence of the wood ever been treated, allowing you to keep the woods natural beauty. Zeroflame Treatment does not require over coating, however it can be over coated with waterborne, non-flammable stains, varnishes and paints for decoration and/or protection if desired (care should be taken that the fire retardant properties are not compromised).

Please Note: Timber must be a minimum of 12mm thick for the treatment to be effective.

Un-Matched Performance

To say that Zeroflame Fire Retardant Treatment is revolutionary is an understatement, this remarkable product will protect timber substrates in commercial and domestic environments, can be used internally and externally, is not affected by moisture or humidity when dry, is non-hazardous, non-corrosive and virtually odour free, the list goes on! Never before has there been such a simple product to use for the protection of timber against fire.

Limitations

• Discolouration may occur on some types of timber or on heavily knotted wood. If this is a concern it is recommended that a sample area is completed before application to the whole project. Alternatively, application of a compatible varnish or stain AFTER application of Zeroflame Fire Retardant Treatment may help overcome this phenomenon if it is unacceptable
• Zeroflame Fire Retardant Treatment is not suitable for veneer, plywood laminates, wood-derived particle board or similar as it cannot penetrate. Zeroflame Fire Retardant Paint or Thermoguard Fire Varnish BS Class 1/0 & EN Class B System is recommended instead

* This product has not been tested to BS 476 Parts 6 & 7, Class 1/0 so if this is the level of protection you require you should check with your authority prior to use that they will accept BS EN 13501-1:2018 B s2 d0 as a suitable alternative before proceeding.
