CHALLENGE

 

New chemistry needed

Did you know that only in four minutes, a sofa fire can engulf an entire room in flames, filling it with thick, dark smoke and toxic gasses? One of these toxic gasses is carbon monoxide, the major killer in fires. Colourless and odourless, the gas can cause a deep narcosis, rendering sleepers unconscious before the fire can awaken them.

Slower ignition and less dense and toxic smoke could provide more protection.
This requires new chemistry and that is exactly what we are aiming for.

THE
ENVIRONMENT

PROTECTING PEOPLE AND THE ENVIRONMENT

Although flame retardants help to save lives, some traditional chemistries can pose a risk for human health or the environment. Through heavy investments in R&D, we have created a complete range of more environmentally friendly products named: Winflamen halogen free flame retardants. These products thus protect people from the hazards of fire ignition, but also protect the environment from hazardous chemical substances.
