Plywood panels with a range of flame retardant treatments and specs.

Fire rated (FR) plywood and timber is material that has been treated to slow the spread of fire propagation and prevent ignition. The spread of flame is measured against a known standard of EN 13501-1. In order to meet Euroclass B or Euroclass C specifications, timber or plywood is tested to EN ISO 11925 (ignitability test) and BS EN 13823: 2002 (SBI or Single Burning Item Test). The SBI test records parameters relating to the rate of fire growth, lateral flame spread and total heat release.

Specialised Panel Products Ltd. is an approved supplier to Transport for London (Product Register 2061). The products provided meet all of their required standards (Product Registration Certificate 1327). Treated panels can also be supplied to a London Underground Approved Specification.
