Fast, Flexible Fireproofing for Retail Environments
Retail spaces use a wide range of decorative and structural materials that often need fireproofing before a store launch or concession opening. From window displays to full store fit-outs, we provide fast, on-site fire retardant treatment and certification anywhere in the UK.
Whether you’re preparing a seasonal display, building a department store concession, installing a pop-up shop, or dressing a flagship store, we ensure your materials meet the correct fire safety standard.
If your installation includes fabric banners or drapes, we also offer certified curtain fire retardant treatment to BS 5867 Part 2 Type B.
If you are using foliage in your display, we also provide fire retardant treatment for artificial plants and dried flower fireproofing for seasonal or botanical designs.
