HALT - Natural Fire Retardant Treatment

HALT offers a ground-breaking and innovative, non-toxic fire-retardant treatment for timber. HALT’s technology is industry-leading and is the first of its kind on the island of Ireland in partnership with Burnblock. The treatment effectively prevents oxygen from reaching treated timber, protecting it from combustion and removing the threat of the spread of fire. The product is 100% natural, is safe and clean, biodegradable and non-toxic - an environmentally friendly alternative to fire treatment. HALT has invested in a specialised kiln and autoclave which returns timber to a specified moisture content post-treatment using the impregnation of a solution from partner company, Burnblock, leaving no staining or residue on the timber. Once absorbed by the treated material, a surface remains that can char and release moisture upon application of heat. This process absorbs a portion of the heat and helps prevent further occurrence and spread of fire.
