How a Fire Resistant
Application
Helps Slow The
Spread
of Fire Instantly¡±
A Fire
Resistant substance is an element that¡¯s very difficult to burn
From the desk of
Wayne Avnell
Dear friend,
Industry studies and my own experiments now
prove that utilising Fire Resistant
applications on fabrics and textiles can significantly slow the
burning of those materials. Materials like upholstery, bed sheets,
fabrics, carpets, and the most flammable fire accelerators in
any home or office¡ the curtains.
As a result of fire climbing so rapidly it
loves highly flammable materials like curtains. Burning curtains act as the
perfect fire accelerator in a home or office as they not very fire resistant BUT
what do you think happens when the curtains have trouble burning and are not
the huge risk they once were?
Could you delay the spread of fire and help
save lives?
If you don¡¯t mind me saying, ¡°When you Invest
in our fire resistant application you could save a life, not to mention the likelihood
of saving one of the most expensive items you own¡ your home or business.¡±

Because the fire resistant applications I use
are commercially related, I naturally find myself being hired by large companies,
hotels and corporate offices. These days there is a growing demand by many home
owners who are investing in the application of fire resistant products to be
applied to their curtains and other flammable materials.
What
Is a Fire Resistant Product?
A fire resistant product is a chemical that
considerably slows the spread of fire. A quality and professionally applied fire
resistant application can slow the spread of fire dramatically and aid fire
fighters in an emergency where lives are at stake.
A good example of a fire resistant compound
is a coupling agent, or what is commonly known as a polymeric coupling agent.
It is a polymer that attaches an inorganic filler to the polymer surroundings.
Characteristically, the fillers are Calcium Carbonate, Glass fibers,
Talc, or a flame retardant known as ATH (Aluminumtrihydrate)
or what is also known as Mg(OH)2 (Magnesium hydroxide).
The basis for the addition fillers are sometimes
to lower the cost of the polymer (CaC03, Talc), to make it stiffer
(glass fibers, CaCO3) or to craft it as a flame retardant or flame
resistant compound so that it won¡¯t burn when ignited (ATH, Mg(OH)2).
Below is a diagram.
Our special Textile

treat fabrics and other porous materials. The Textile fire resistant product we

protection today and can easily be applied to your fabrics, textiles and
curtains in the home or at your office. The best part about our special fire

of Australia. This is our firm assurance to you that you are obtaining a

Investing in a good fire resistant
application is very similar to home security systems in the sense that most
people will usually only install a security system after they have been robbed.
In the fire resistant industry it¡¯s very similar where people will usually
invest in a fire resistant application only after they have experienced a fire and
their life has been in danger or they have lost their belongings in the fire.
It usually doesn¡¯t make sense to invest in
a fire resistant application until you¡¯ve actually been through the horror of a
fire at home or in the office. You may feel that by leaving the application of
a fire resistant treatment on hold will be fine... But, utilising a product
that slows the spread of the fire dramatically can be a very intelligent
decision and give you piece of mind.
When you invest in the application of a
good fire resistant product you¡¯re not just investing in the possibility of
saving the belongings in your home or office, you¡¯re making a decision that
could possibly save lives¡ people you love, and people you work with.
From a business point of view¡ investing in
the application of a fire resistant product to help prevent the spread of fire
and ultimately stop your premises from burning down could one day make all the
difference where running your business the very next day (after a fire) is
important as opposed to not having a business to run.
The thought of not being able to run your
business and losing customers (as they will have to shop with your competitors)
as a result of a fire would be devastating to your bottom line. A fire is
devastation all round and the simple application of a fire resistant product
could stop a fire from spreading with just one phone call.

As a trained technician in the application
of Fire Resistant products, I get a great deal of satisfaction out of my work
and I really enjoy caring for my customers and delivering the very best with my
business services.
Currently on our team is a small in-house group
of experienced technicians who have many years of treating fine fabrics and
textiles under their belts (not just in fire resistant application, also in
cleaning and soil protection). I¡¯m proud to say we offer a great deal of
knowledge and understanding of fine fabrics, textiles and hands on experience
to our quality and workmanship.
The fire resistant spray-on formulas we
utilise are quickly applied to most natural and synthetic fibres. All of our
fire resistant sprays are free from hazardous materials, such as brominate compounds
which are widely used in conventional fire resistant sprays. Such materials can
carry a risk to the human body along with environmental issues. As this is an
extremely important issue for me I have managed to utilise a safe water based fire
resistant product that is free from powerful and obnoxious odours and
dangerous chemicals.
