Medite FR by SierraPine

General Description

SierraPine flame retardant Medite® FR2

SierraPine flame retardant Medite® FR2 is designed for critical applications where Class 1 flame retardant material is required. FR2 still leads the industry with low flame spread and smoke development. In manufacturing, the flame retardant additive is blended in the fiber throughout the panel. This process delivers superior performance vs. other topical flame retardant applications.

Plus, FR MDF can be machined, cut, sanded, and grooved without compromising flame retardance.

U/L Certified to U.S. & Canadian Class 1 standards:
Flame Spread rating - 20
Smoke Development rating - 20
