In the production of Fire retardant plywood, exterior or laminated plywood made from birch veneer and phenol-formaldehyde adhesive is used. Each layer of veneer in this plywood undergoes fire retardant treatment using an anti-ignition component, providing resistance to fire exposure. After cutting, the edges of the plywood do not require additional treatment with a fire-retardant compound. Fire retardant plywood has enhanced strength and wear resistance, it doesn’t deform or become soggy in high humidity conditions and it reduces the rate of fire spread.
This type of plywood is widely used for cladding walls and floors in passenger transport, railway carriages, as well as in construction and building finishing.
