Cesa™ Flame Retardant Additives
Promotes Fire Safety
Flame retardants are used in a variety of applications from building materials, furniture, upholstery, electrical and electronic components to automotive parts. They help mitigate fire hazards by increasing the ignition resistance of plastics, reducing the speed of flame spread, reducing heat release, and reducing smoke and fume generation.
The Cesa Flame Retardant Additives portfolio comprises a wide range of efficient flame retardant technologies that include halogenated and non-halogenated substances, hydroxides, phosphorous formulations, and intumescent systems. Their suitability spans various resins from polyolefins and styrenics to engineering resins.
Standard and custom solutions are available to comply with the technical and regulatory requirements of different applications such as Glow Wire ratings for E&E, building and construction standards, textile norms, REACH, and RoHS.
