The current debate surrounding the safety of certain
FRs is driving the search for alternative FR technologies.
As a research based company, working exclusively in this area,
Firestop considers that key factors driving the search will be:
- Compliance with new legislation (as implemented)
- Trend towards demanding Environmentally Preferable
Products (EPP)
- Stricter environmental controls and new regulation
- Increasingly stringent testing and evaluation
procedures
- Greater corporate responsibility with regard
to fire safety and environmental protection
- Support for European Chemical Industry Council
(CEFIC) guidelines of Responsible Care®,
designed to facilitate communication and understanding between
legislative bodies and manufacturers
