    How do fire prevention additives work?

    Many polymers and plastics are combustible. This creates hazards of everyday items that rely on plastics such as electronics, appliances, automotive, construction, and more. Fire prevention additives are combined with plastic during its manufacturing process to prevent ignition and make plastics fire resistant. Fire prevention additives can save lives, protect property, and give emergency first responders more time to react.
