OUR TIMBER – Fire retardant protection
As well as being able to treat most of our stock products to Tanatone® and Tanalith E®, we can also supply products fire retardant treated to meet BBA performance requirements (Dricon).

 

Fire retardant treated timber tends to apply to cladding and decking type products and there are two options to consider, Non-Com® for exterior un-coated situations and Dricon® for interior un-coated or exterior coated situations.

 

If you would like us to provide a price for a fire retardant treated product, we need to know both the application and desired level of protection before we can quote. The level of protection is based on the rate of spread of flame and are expressed as a classification:

The performance normally required for wall and ceiling linings is Class 1 spread of flame in accordance with BS 476 :Part 7 or Euroclass C in accordance with BS EN 13501-1:2002

The performance normally required in high risk areas such as escape routes and staircases is Class 0 in accordance with BS 476: Parts 6 & 7 or Euroclass B in accordance with BS EN 13501-1:2002
