Flame Retardants

Flame retardants are specialized chemical additives used in the Coatings, Adhesives, Sealants, and Elastomers (CASE) industry to enhance the fire resistance and safety of various products. These additives work by slowing down or inhibiting the ignition and spread of flames, reducing the risk of fire-related damage.
