Vibration isolation with Sylomer® FR

The requirements for the fire protection of materials are increasing worldwide. In the construction industry as well as in the construction of rail vehicles, ships and machinery, a large number of standards and regulations govern the desired fire behaviour of the materials used.

The Sylomer® Fire-retardant (FR) product family offers protection against unwanted vibrations and shocks, especially in areas at risk of fire. Like the tried and tested Sylomer® products, Sylomer® FR has excellent damping properties. Its proven fire-retardant effect has been confirmed by various certificates.
