From fire retardant consumption rate to competitive advantage

When discussing the treatment of wood with fire retardants, there is often a tendency to focus primarily on the end result, such as the visual appearance of the treated wood materials, the achieved fire safety class, or the ecological composition of the material. However, in addition to the above, there is another important practical factor that directly affects both the work process and the economic viability of the project - the consumption rate of fire retardants.

It is clear that the smaller the consumption per square meter, the less product, time, and resources are used. Thanks to its innovative composition, Solid Protects SPFR100 has the lowest consumption rate among fire retardant wood protection products on the market. The overall consumption for primary wood materials is 220-250 g/m² for two layers, which means that noticeably less material and time is required to treat the same area compared to other similar products. For comparison, many conventional fire retardants require from three layers upwards of 300-350 g/m² or more. The difference may not seem so significant at first glance, but when dealing with hundreds or thousands of square meters, it becomes a noticeable saving in terms of raw materials and working time. Each additional layer or thickened layer means extra resources: more product, more human resources, more time, and a greater risk of later wear or maintenance needs.

As labor costs are typically one of the largest cost components in the Western world, the most significant savings from the low consumption rate of SPFR100 are on labor costs. The less material that needs to be applied, the faster the job can be completed. Fewer layers, faster drying, and shorter downtime mean that the project can be completed significantly faster. In large-scale projects, this can mean several days of shorter working time and tens of thousands of euros in savings, all without any sacrifices in terms of fire safety or durability.

SPFR100 is not just an ordinary fire retardant wood protection product, but a systemic solution and tool that allows the construction and wood industry to achieve high fire safety with the lowest possible resource consumption. The consumption rate is not just a technical indicator, but a measure of real impact and benefit.
