Maywoflamm® flame retardent plastics are mainly used in the fields of transportation, housing construction, the electrical sector, and the construction industry. Depending on the requirements, there are various fire tests that can be performed in-house at Röchling or at external testing laboratories.
The most widely recognized standard for defining the flammability of plastic materials is the UL 94 rating, a standard issued by Underwriter Laboratories, an independent product safety certification company.
