Fire-retardant agents reduce the reaction of wood products to fire, resulting in improved fire safety performance. However, exposure to weather and moisture can cause these fire-retardant properties to diminish over time. It is therefore essential to assess the durability of the fire-retardant treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biobased materials and circularity are high on today\u2019s social agenda. Wood is increasingly used as a nature-friendly alternative to traditional building materials \u2014 which calls for fire-retardant measures. These are now also available on a nature-based foundation. But do such environmentally friendly ingredients and treatments actually have a long lifespan?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our whitepaper Testing Methodology and Application<\/em>, we explain how Hestus tests and applies fire-retardant treated wood. This publication focuses specifically on the durability of these treatments in combination with the expected lifespan of the wood products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The whitepaper is available for free download here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
