Safe as houses…
and warehouses, and workshops…

 

And everywhere else for that matter!

We know that when it comes to your facility, safety is paramount. That’s why we undertake rigorous fire testing, following new UK fire safety regulations and meeting the latest European standards.

Our bestselling coatings, Epoxy Gloss Coat and Safety Coat have achieved Bfl-S1 classification – meaning they are flame retardant, produce very little smoke and slow down the movement of fire, creating more time for safe evacuation.

Results and classification

 

Both products achieved Bfl-S1 classification, which means they’re flame-retardant and produce very little smoke if exposed to fire. In simple terms, Bfl indicates they won’t easily catch fire, and S1 means they give off minimal smoke - making them a much safer choice. This level of fire performance is especially important in buildings where safety and fire prevention are a top priority.
