Delays Spread of Fire in An Unfortunate Accident

A fire alarm is found in most commercial buildings. This is great, but they do not prevent the rapid outbreak of fire. A fire alarm merely alerts the resident in case of fire. However, can it be functional in reducing the risk of casualties due to fire?

Furthermore, a fire safety system can potentially sprinkle water on a fire that broke out due to electricity. While the fire worsens, the steam generated by the reaction between the fire and water becomes electrocuted.

In a nutshell, these two systems are not as functional as they might seem to be. Moreover, most of the typical residential buildings do not have any of these. Those who do only have them in the hallways and staircases. What about the flats where inmates dwell?

The marketplaces in India are also very powerless against the outbreak of fire due to the over-crowdedness and lack of town planning and landscaping. In such times, to contain the spread of fire during accidental fires, Firewall technology plywood by CenturyPly can be a life savior.

CenturyPly Firewall Technology Plywood comes with fire retardant technology that does not let the fire spread so easily. By doing so, it provides residents ample time to evacuate. In addition, a plethora of household materials is made via plywood. Thus, employing Firewall Technology Plywood can be a great step to ensuring the safety of people.

Plywood was hitherto preferred over natural wood because of its resistance to moisture and abrasion and its flexible nature. Earlier, Century has advanced a step further by protecting you from microbes through its ViroKill silver nanotechnology. Today, it has shown that it cares for the consumers by introducing fire retardant grade plywood for the common man.

Let us learn more about this fire retardant property that comes from nano-engineered technology.

Fire retardant plywood property

Delayed ignition:

The plywood is engineered to have low flammability. Flammability denotes the time it might take for the material to catch fire, provided there is a constant supply of fire. For example, traditional plywood takes less than 10-15 minutes to catch fire. On the other hand, Firewall technology  Plywood has been scientifically tested to resist catching fire for 35 minutes for 19 mm thickness. Moreover, when the fire source is removed, the fire smothers away on its own, thanks to its nanotechnology.

A large number of fire accidents happen in kitchens. Several accidents can be prevented if countertops and cabinets are made from this plywood.

Stops the fire for a long time before it can penetrate the plywood:

Firewall technology shields fire effectively and stops any flame to pierce through the plywood  for a longer period of time and pass on to the surrounding materials. As a direct result, the spread of fire is delayed, and residents get more time to evacuate with lesser casualties.

Smoke

Unfortunately, plywood or any industrial wood product gives out fumes that are toxic. They can even be carcinogenic. Thus, even when you can evacuate the premises, not only does the environment become toxic, but there are chances that you or your loved ones inhale toxic gases in the process. CenturyPly Firewall Technology hence comes treated with chemicals that generate a limited amount of smoke.

Invincible strength:

The Firewall plywood does not let water seep into its layers, thereby ensuring that its fire-retardant property will remain intact for years to come. Moreover, the plywood remains unaffected by weather calamities like rain, dust storms, or snow. Thus, the durability of your doors, cabinets, shelves, tables, chairs, and any other material that is made out of plywood is guaranteed.

The Bottom Line

Fire accidents are unfortunate and can be avoided at times. However, it is useless to dwell on how a fire started once a fire breaks out. The dwelling and introspection can be saved for later. The protection of humans becomes the priority any day, any time. With CenturyPly’s firewall technology plywood, you can save both the lives of your loved ones and those around you. Moreover, the plywood can also prevent material damages if help can arrive on time.
