Our story

Chemistry fortimber architecture.

Wood has its own identity. Grain, knots and tone give every surface character. For us, it matters that this character remains even when a project calls for fire protection for timber.

Solid Protect is built on years of experience in developing fire-retardant chemicals for timber and using them in industry. In 2023, we started our own production in Estonia. Today, we develop and manufacture SPFR100, a transparent, water-based fire-retardant impregnation for absorbent timber materials.

Our work brings chemistry together with the practical questions of construction. What timber is being used? What should the surface look like? How will the treatment be applied? What requirements must the solution meet?

We work through these questions with architects, timber manufacturers and builders. We help select the tone and application method, bring together the necessary documentation and arrange project-specific testing where needed. This turns a choice of material into a carefully considered treatment solution.

Wood gives a building character. Our contribution is its fire protection.

Our purpose

Safer timber buildings, without hiding the wood.

We want the natural appearance of timber and fire safety to be considered together from the start of a project. This guides our product development and our work to find a solution suited to the specific timber, finish and intended use.

The next question could come from your project.

A new timber material, a different finish or a particular application may call for further development and testing.

We welcome collaboration with timber manufacturers, architects, builders and research partners. Together, we discuss the desired result, the technical conditions and the testing and documentation needed to assess the solution.

Supported project

With the support of the Estonian Business and Innovation Agency (EIS) innovation voucher, Solid Protect OÜ implemented the project “Solid Protect OÜ innovation voucher” (No. 2021-2027.1.01.26-1616). The aim of the project was to obtain the internationally recognised M1 emission classification for our fire retardant for wood, SPFR100.

Result: an M1 certificate was issued for SPFR100. The project was financed from the European Regional Development Fund in the amount of €2,852.00.
