18mm - Fire Retardant Grade Chipboard to Euro Class 'B'

The addition of halogen-free phosphate salts gives the MUF-glued FR chipboard powerful fire-retardant characteristics (European classification B-s1, d0). Fires in FR Chipboard go out by themselves and the boards do not continue to glow after the source of heat has been taken away. What is more, FR chipboard retains its mechanical strength for a long time in the event of a fire. FR chipboard must be used in service class 1 (limitations in terms of temperature and atmospheric humidity), and is only suitable for biological hazard class 1 of EN Standard 335-3. Direct contact with water is to be avoided at all times.

Applications
FR chipboard is suitable for applications where low reactivity to fire and flame spread is essential (stairwells, exit routes, lift shafts, corridors etc.). FR Chipboard also offers an excellent solution for applications with higher resistance to fire, such as the core of fire doors or as a firewall. The fire retardant chipboard is mainly used in public buildings such as hospitals, airports, retirement homes, theatres, hotels etc. An optional finish with tongue-and-groove joints means that FR Chipboard is also suitable for use as a subfloor in dry environments. These panels can also be used in vertical applications.

Always use suitable tools when sawing, milling or drilling FR Chipboard boards. Fire-retardant products may cause deposits on tools and shorten service life.
