Globalpu News:Axalta announces the launch of Plascoat PPA571 FR (Flame Retardant), a new anti-corrosion coating solution designed to protect buildings and save lives in the event of fire.

Drawing on decades of experience in thermoplastics technology, Axalta developed this novel coating solution to address the dual threat of fire and toxic fumes, which pose a significant threat to human life and well-being. This coating can be used in a variety of environments, is fire resistant and acts as a barrier to additional damage from the spread of flames.

Unlike many other flame retardant solutions on the market, Plascoat PPA571 FR is free of halogen components such as chlorine or bromine, which helps eliminate the presence of toxic fumes and their associated negative environmental impacts.

Flame retardant and low toxicity certificates for Plascoat PPA571 FR demonstrate compliance with several industry certifications including British Standard 476, EN 45545-2 "European Railway Fire Safety Standard", British Standard 6853, International Maritime Organization FTPC standard, UL94 "Flammability test of plastic materials for equipment and electrical components". Recognition by Independent Organization Highlights Plascoat PPA571 FR's performance advantages and suitability for various environments.

Plascoat PPA571 FR provides strong sun, salt and seawater protection with excellent impact and sand abrasion resistance, providing superior performance and aesthetics for steel, iron and aluminium substrates.
