Tried, Tested and Trusted Fire Protection

Lonza Wood Protection’s fire retardant products have been specified for use within public buildings for more than 40 years.

Tried – Specifiers can rest assured that both treatments are fit for purpose, backed with 40 years of commercial use and independent fire testing.

Tested – Under the new Euroclass Reaction to Fire Tests for timber and plywood, a relevant Classification Report certified by a third-party test house must be issued. This report must make reference to the class of treatment, timber thickness, species and whether or not an air gap is present. Lonza has invested in a wide range of independent tests covering varying species and thicknesses and will only treat timber where a full Classification Report has been provided - giving you complete peace of mind.

Trusted Dricon – Dricon is backed by extensive independent certification and is the only BBA certified fire retardant treatment for timber. In addition, it holds Wood Protection Association (WPA) Approved status. Independent test data demonstrates that there is no change in fire performance of Dricon fire retardant treated timber even after 21 years in-situ.

Trusted Non-Com Exterior – Non-Com Exterior is the only fire retardant impregnation treatment accepted by the NHBC for exterior timber cladding. The treatment is also a WPA Approved status product. Treated timbers need no further protection in exterior situations. However, a warrantied coating, Drywood Woodstain is available, if required.

And maintenance free – Treated products are impregnated on all faces with no need to reapply fire treatment throughout the life of the timber. Both treatments are applied in controlled conditions at Lonza’s specialist treatment centre operating with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 accreditations.
