What is Flame Retardant Tape?

Flame Retardant Tape is great at fixing temporary protection materials in place without contributing to the spread of flame if it comes into contact with fire or sparks.
The Flame Retardant Tape Tape also benefits from a simple tear design, so tape can be easily used as and when needed.

Before applying any tape to finished surfaces, we recommend trialing a small amount as a test. Please also avoid applying this tape to veneer doors and use a suitable protective Door Sleeve at all times.

Flame retardant tape function as a fire barrier to meet more demanding fire propagation and fire survival requirements in public and enclosed or underground places. They are also ideal for emergency situations, as no harmful substances have been used in their manufacture or are emitted into the environment.
