Frequently Asked Questions

SPFR100 is not a fire-retardant paint or surface coating. It consists of active agents that penetrate into the wood structure and integrate with the fibers without forming a thick surface film.

Reaction to fire describes how a material behaves in the early stages of a fire – how quickly it ignites, how much heat and smoke it releases, and whether burning droplets occur. Wood treated with SPFR100 may achieve class B-s1, d0 according to EN 13501-1.

Fire resistance (e.g., REI 30, REI 60) describes a construction’s ability to maintain load-bearing capacity, integrity, and insulation for a specific time during a fire. Fire resistance depends on the entire construction system, not only the surface treatment.

Generally not. SPFR100 must penetrate into the wood; it is not suitable for surfaces covered with coatings (paints, varnishes, oils). We recommend consulting us in advance to assess suitability.

SPFR100 does not alter the mechanical properties, load-bearing capacity or structural performance of wood. The active agents penetrate deeply into the wood fibers and bind within the structure without forming a rigid, load-bearing layer.

The product is water-based and does not significantly affect dimensional stability or normal moisture movement.

Yes. In addition to its own color charts, SPFR100 can be tinted in a wide range of architectural shades, including RAL, NCS and other color systems. The color is part of the fire protection process.
