PyroLac PrO Vs non fire-retardant lacquer
The benefits of PyroLac PrO are clearly illustrated
in this video, filmed by Warrington Fire Research
during testing.
The video shows PyroLac PrO’s performance against
a panel with a non fire-retardant coating, under identical
test conditions.
A flame is applied to the panels for 1 minute. On
the PyroLac PrO panel this flame is instantly extinguished,
leaving the intumescent to perform (as shown by the
bubbling) for the remaining 9 minutes of the test.
On the non fire-retardant panel, the flames continue
to burn throughout the test.
In a real building fire situation, PyroLac PrO will
greatly increase the amount of time for exit, which
is particularly important where exit route corridors
are wood panelled.
NB. The film is played at 20x normal speed. We apologise
for the darkness at times, this is due to the camera
re-focusing.
