General Questions
- –No Construction Delays – M-Fire is applied directly during framing, while FRT requires pre-ordered lumber, delaying delivery.
- –On-site applied, non-toxic fire inhibitor – Unlike FRT wood, which is factory pre-treated.
- –Environmentally Safe – UL GreenGuard Gold Certified, free from toxic chemicals like formaldehyde or ammonia.
- –Better Long-Term Protection – FRT effectiveness degrades over time, while M-Fire remains consistent throughout construction.
- –Material Compatibility – Unlike FRT, which can corrode metal fasteners and damage plastic pipes, M-Fire is safe for CPVC, PVC, and PEX.
Application & Effectiveness
- –M-Fire chemically inhibits combustion, reducing the risk of fire spreading.
- –It is applied on-site during the framing process and does not affect construction timelines.
- –Provides long-lasting fire protection without toxic off-gassing or residue.
Yes. While M-Fire is primarily used for new multifamily construction, it can also be applied to renovation and retrofit projects where wood-framed structures need additional fire protection. Contact us to discuss your specific project needs.
- –M-Fire Suppression is designed to provide long-lasting fire resistance throughout the entire construction phase.
- –It does not wash off easily and remains effective unless physically removed or altered.
- –For completed structures, additional fire protection strategies may be recommended.
- –No delays: M-Fire is applied on-site, integrating seamlessly into your construction workflow.
- –No waiting for pre-treated materials like FRT wood, reducing supply chain issues.
Safety & Environmental Impact
- –Yes. It contains no harmful chemicals like formaldehyde, ammonia, or PFAS.
- –Safe for CPVC, PVC, and PEX plumbing, unlike FRT wood, which can corrode certain materials.
- –M-Fire is a UL GreenGuard Gold Certified product that helps promote a healthier indoor environment.
- –UL GreenGuard Gold Certified – Proven safe for human health and the environment.
- –ASTM E84 Extended Burn Test – Passed the 30-minute burn test, maintaining a Class A fire rating.
- –CPVC, PVC & PEX Compatibility – Safe for use in plumbing and electrical applications.
Yes. M-Fire's low-VOC, non-toxic formula supports sustainability goals and can contribute to LEED certifications.
Costs & Implementation
