OUR CURRENT OFFERINGS IN THE FIELD OF FIRE PROTECTION
20 million fires affecting private dwellings, public buildings, discos, trains, buses and subways claim tens of thousands of lives and injure hundreds of thousands of people per year, at an annual cost to the global community of more than $40 billion dollars. Among the solutions available to reduce fire damage is the use of reliable fire retardants to treat flammable objects, providing the critical escape time needed to save lives and property.
ICL-IP’s flame retardants are designed to enhance consumer safety while conforming to environmental concerns. All of its products are backed by comprehensive toxicological and environmental research, and conform with international regulations and directives such as US EPA DofE programs, EU RoHS and WEEE Directives, EU REACH Regulation and voluntary safety programs, and initiatives such as VECAP, Product Stewardship and Responsible Care. Moreover, scientific studies show that brominated flame retardants (BFRs) play an important role in the reduction of emission of toxic smoke during full-scale fires or incineration. ICL-IP’s flame retardants portfolio includes additives, polymeric and reactive (monomeric) products based on bromine, phosphorus and other materials.
BFRs, the market’s primary flame retardants, are known for their efficiency and are suitable for use in most polymeric systems. They are used by the E&E, building & construction, automotive and transportation industries. From a product-life-cycle perspective, and compared to other FRs, plastics treated with BFRs provide an improved recycling profile characterized by the retention of a high proportion of their initial properties.
