The effects of a fire can be devastating , destroying buildings and taking lives.
Timber continues to be a beautiful, sustainable and popular construction choice for new build projects and industrially applied fire retardant impregnation treatments provide real protection assurance in the event of a fire.
The treated timber will be able to withstand fire attack for longer, allowing more time to escape to safety and for fire services to attend, giving specifiers and building occupants real assurance and peace of mind.
