Creation of FRT Wood
• Fire retardant wood products are typically created through the
use of organic and inorganic salts, which are infused into the wood
through water-based solutions under pressure. The end result is a
product that has 2.5 to 5.0 pounds of salts per cubic foot of wood
product. Not all species of wood are treatable, and the species
that is certified for treatment for lumber may not necessarily be
certified for treatment as plywood and vice-versa.
