How much do you know about fire-retardant wood?

An industrial process that transforms ordinary wood into a certified building product.

When you send wood to Woodsafe, it is treated in an industrial vacuum-pressure process where the fire retardant is infused deep into the wood’s cellular structure. It is the process itself—not the type of wood or who supplied the lumber—that determines the final fire performance.

The result is wood that meets Euroclass B-s1,d0 and can be used in type-approved facade systems in accordance with SP FIRE 105. For those in the building materials trade, this means something very concrete: you can offer your customers an upgraded product line with documented and verified fire protection—without changing how you source lumber. You sell as usual, but with clear added value and the proper documentation from the start.

How Your Customer Benefits

A reliable, long-term choice for the entire construction project.

When you choose to work with Woodsafe, you’re giving your customer more than just fire-retardant wood. You’re giving them peace of mind—from the initial selection to the completed construction project.

Through the building supply industry, customers gain access to wood that has been fire-retardant treated through a certified and third-party-monitored process. This means that the material not only meets the correct fire rating on paper but is also verified for the specific environment and application that the project actually requires.

The fire protection is an integral part of the wood’s structure and has documented durability over time in accordance with EN 16755. For the customer, this means a reduced risk of functional failure, fewer reworks, and no unpleasant surprises later in the construction process.

With proper labeling and full traceability, it becomes easy to present valid documentation during technical consultations, in the inspection plan, and at the final inspection. This provides peace of mind for everyone involved—the client, the contractor, and the inspector.

In short:
The client gets a more predictable project, fewer uncertainties, and fire protection that complies with the New Industry Regulations. And you have Woodsafe backing you—one of the industry’s most experienced and established players in industrial fire-retardant impregnation.
