Hemp insulation RosEcoMat Kenaf Anti-fire

RosEcoMat Kenaf Anti-fire is made of hemp, treated with fire-retardant*: it has high thermal inertia and increased resistance to fire. In winter, the insulation allows you to keep warm longer, and cool in summer. Raw materials are grown without the use of pesticides, which affects the absence of rotting and mold exposure, thereby protecting the building structure. The strength and density of the insulation act as a guarantee of its durability. Easy installation is carried out without personal protective equipment. The elasticity of the material prevents cold bridges, and allows you to create breathable structures with a healthy microclimate.

*The anti-fire is fireproof. The insulation in the form of a plate withstands the effects of medium-intensity fire, does not spread flames (flammability rating – low-flammable and frugally-flammable). Fire protection is achieved by adding sea salt, which is not only an antiseptic, but also a fire-retardant.

However, hemp plates are not and cannot be absolutely non-combustible material (incombustible class), since this plant is hemp. With an intense mass fire, when everything around will burn, any insulation will burn. It is important that a person has time to leave the room and not suffocate from harmful secretions. Fire-retardant, which is part of RosEkoMat Roof Anti-fire copes with the task. The combustibility can be reduced due to some other additional impregnations, but we do not do this so as not to reduce the environmental friendliness of the material.

The treatment of the plates with fire-retardants is superficial and in order to preserve the self-extinguishing effect, it is categorically not allowed to cut or otherwise violate the integrity of the plate. If this has happened, then it is necessary to cover the cut or break line with fire protection, for example, Senezh. If the cut-off line is not processed, then in this place, when an open flame appears, it is possible that the entire mass of the plate, including other entire surfaces, will ignite from the inside.

*It is not allowed to place thermal insulation boards near an open fire, heating surface (fuel boiler, chimney).
