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.
