Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Fire Retardant?

A fire retardant is a substance that significantly delays and can prevent the onset of fire.

What do N.Z. Fire-Shield's products have that other fire retardant companies products don't?

We have UL and ULC classifications. For more information, please take a look at some of our certifications.

Can you work on-site so I don't have to have downtime?

This is the most important feature of our service. You can't send your factory, school, or hotel to us, so we go to you.

Do you work on an emergency basis?

Absolutely. Hotels, schools, circuses, etc., are always calling us at the last minute because their facilities don't meet the fire codes. As you're probably well aware, if your facility doesn't meet the fire codes, it can't operate.

Are you familiar with the Federal, State, and Municipal governments' regulations on fire prevention?

That's our job. Our familiarity with these regulations is why so many architects, engineers, and interior decorators use our products. Read more about Fire Codes and Flame Retardency Code Requirements
