2 T imber is still our most sustainable and versatile construction material. Just like any other material, protecting it against the threat of fire is one of the most important factors when complying with Building Regulations on new build projects. This is particularly so for schools or educational buildings which will accommodate large numbers of people. PASSMORES ACADEMY Harlow For complete peace of mind you need to specify the correct and most reliable fire protection. Industrially applied fire retardant impregnation treatments provide end users with total assurance that in the event of a fire, the treated timber will be able to withstand the effects for a longer period of time, allowing building occupants more time to escape to safety.
