About NFP
NFP is a water-based, non-toxic, non-skin irritant, non-eye irritant and biodegradable flame retardant. It has been tested under ASTM sanctioned test protocols by third-party testing laboratories. These auditors have performed extensive testing on all species of wood commonly used in construction, as well as other natural fiber materials. Results show that the use of NFP allows builders and manufacturers to meet and exceed building fire codes.
NFP is applied to natural fiber surfaces by spraying, dipping, brushing or rolling. it dries clear and leaves no surface residue on the treated material. Once applied, NFP will reduce flame spread and raise the ignition temperature on any unsealed natural material surface.

Broad Applications and Use-Cases

Moreover, NFP’s ability to safeguard aging materials makes it a first line of defense against fire for historical structures. It’s been successfully used to treat more historical properties across the country than any other product. Historical societies and agencies tend to specify NFP due to its effectiveness, Longevity, economics, and non-toxic properties.
