Three Major Fire-Resistant Materials for Home Renovation: How to Choose Paint, Flooring, and Wallpapers? 18671079388
One, Paint: Fire-resistant paint prevents the spread of fire
Fire-resistant paint is used on combustible substrates, reducing their flammability and slowing down the rapid spread of fire, thereby increasing the fire resistance limit of the coated material. Fire-resistant paint not only has flame-retardant properties but also provides rust prevention, waterproofing, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, heat resistance, as well as coating toughness, coloring, adhesion, quick drying, and a certain level of gloss.
Fire-resistant paint can effectively prevent the spread of large fires.
Selection Tips: Like other products, the paint market varies in quality. Experts from Ruili remind consumers not to seek cheap options but to choose well-known brands to ensure safety for themselves and their families.
Do not blindly trust the [green] label on the packaging; carefully check the product's quality inspection report. Observe if there is any rust or leakage at the seams of the iron bucket. Ensure that all the labels on the iron bucket are complete.
Suggestion: The [fire-resistant paint] available on the market is mixed with good and bad products. When purchasing, be sure to compare multiple options, do not seek small bargains, and avoid buying counterfeit [fire-resistant paint]. Ruili suggests that consumers test the flame retardancy of fire-resistant paint using simple methods mentioned above when purchasing.
Two, Flooring: A substantial area of fire prevention underfoot
Flooring made from fiberboard, particleboard, plywood, etc., with coatings or impregnated paper as decorative materials, achieves a certain level of flame retardancy through flame-retardant treatment and has flame-retardant functions. It reaches B1 level flame-retardant standards and smoke-toxicity grade standards. The main types include wear-resistant composite solid wood flooring, water-resistant plastic-wood flooring, and reinforced composite flooring (fireproof).
Fire-resistant flooring plays an important role in home decoration.
Suggestion: Currently, only composite reinforced flooring on the market has fire-resistant functionality. Pure wood floors and bamboo floors may have added fire-resistant layers or fire-resistant paint, but their fire-retardant effects are not significant. Consumers should preferably test the fire-resistant floor on-site with fire; good fire-resistant flooring can quickly achieve a flame-retardant effect, successfully ensuring home safety.
Three, Wallpapers: Unveiling the mystery of fire-resistant wallpapers on the market
Fire-resistant wallpaper uses asbestos paper weighing 100～200g/㎡ as the substrate, while flame retardants are added to the PVC coating material on the wallpaper surface layer, giving the wallpaper a certain level of fire-retardant performance. Nowadays, most wallpapers are fire-resistant, but due to different environments where various wallpapers are used, their fire-resistance grades vary. The fire-resistance grade requirement for civilian wallpapers is relatively low, whereas public environment wallpapers require a higher grade and no toxic gases after combustion. They are mainly suitable for dry, poorly ventilated areas.
The use of fire-resistant wallpaper can prevent the spread of large fires.
Characteristics of fire-resistant wallpaper:
Excellent fire resistance, fireproof, mold-proof, commonly used in airports or public buildings. This type of wallpaper can be divided into surface fire resistance and full fire resistance.
1. Surface fire-resistant wallpaper adds flame retardants to the plastic coating, with ordinary non-flame-retardant paper as the base.
2. Fully fire-resistant wallpaper uses flame-retardant formulas in both the surface coating layer and the base paper. This type of wallpaper has a lower usage rate worldwide, around 1%.
Suggestion: Flame-retardant wallpapers are often used in venues like clubs where fire sources are more likely to occur. If a fire occurs, poor-quality wallpapers can easily ignite and release toxic gases, which is very detrimental to life and property safety. PVC wallpapers are usually non-flame-retardant wallpapers, while new non-woven fabric wallpapers can achieve flame-retardant and fireproof effects.
