CLEAR FIRE PROTECTION FOR TIMBER
HR-Prof is a revolutionary fire proofing product for wood and other porous combustible building materials, now available for the first time in the UK, water based, non-hazardous, ready to use solution.

• Without colour or odour.
• Non-toxic
• Ecologically friendly.
• For internal and external use once applied cannot be washed out of the substrate.
  Tested to NT 053 - view pdf & NT 054 - view pdf
  (Accelerated weathering of wood for fire testing, 20 yr cycle).
• Once dry it is not broken down by water or humidity.
• Does not leach.

HR-Prof fire performance properties will not compromise other critical engineering properties in the timber such as strength, durability, or hygroscopicity.

HR-Prof is simple to use and safe to apply.  Possessing high diffusion properties it quickly penetrates the structure of the substrate. Unlike intumescent systems it does not require an additional protective finishing coat.  However, if required HR-Prof can be over-coated with wood stains, varnishes and some paints (tests may be required before over-coating please contact us for further details). Left naturally, timber substrate may darken slightly. 

HR-Prof has non-flammable properties, which become part of the substrate, restricting ignition and the spread of flame.  It will not wash out from the surface of the substrate after drying, it is not converted into smoke when exposed to high temperatures, and carbon char is restricted to the immediate area.    Materials treated with HR-Prof when exposed to temperatures of up to 1700 C are subject to charcoal forming, severely restricting the spread of flame.

HR-Prof for use in timber frame buildings, external wood cladding, on staircases, trusses, doors, joists, floors and walls, on stables, log cabins, boats, fencing and garages - inside and outside.  Once dry it is not affected by moisture so can also be used in kitchens, bathrooms, saunas and swimming pool enclosures. Timber pre-treated with HR Prof once dry does not react with galvanised steel ( zinc), stainless steel, brass, gun nails or zinc coated screws, whether the application is internal or external.
