Fire Retardant Spraying for Artificial Plants

Fire retardant treatment for artificial plants and decorative displays, certified to BS 5852 and, where required, BS 5867 Part 2 Type B. Suitable for commercial and public venues across the UK.

Why Flameproof Your Artificial Plants?

Artificial plants are beautiful, low-maintenance design features — but untreated foliage can ignite quickly and spread fire dangerously fast.

Our fire retardant spraying treatment creates a protective layer over plastic, fabric, or synthetic foliage, helping prevent flame spread and satisfying fire officer requirements.

BS 5852/ BS 5867 Certification

Odourless, clear treatment

Applied before or after installation

Complies with fire risk assessments

Types of Fire-Retardant Artificial Plants

1. Inherently Flame-Retardant (Manufacturer-Treated)

How We Treat Artificial Plants

We offer both on-site spraying and off-site dipping, depending on your installation and preferences.

Spraying
Perfect for wall or ceiling installations, sprayed in place with protective sheeting to safeguard surroundings.

Dipping
Ideal for bunches, garlands, or removable arrangements. Fully submerged for even coverage.

After treatment, we issue a BS 5852 certificate confirming your plants meet British fire safety standards.
