FSI-Membrane

Product Name: FSI-Membrane

This product is a tough, durable polymer based external membrane originally designed to wrap the base of power poles to protect them from high to extreme bushfire conditions. It has outstanding fire protection performance and is easy to use. The product has many potential uses from protecting power poles to temporary protection of glass windows and doors from a fire front. A thinner and lighter general purpose tarpaulin version is currently under development which may be joined into large sheets to protect buildings and fire vulnerable infrastructure such as vehicles, tractors, trailers, air conditioning units, sheds and so forth. Water-based, free from halogen and Volatile Organic chemicals (VOCs).
