Flame Retardant Electrical Wires, Flamegard

Finolex 'Flamegard' – Flame Retardant Low Smoke (FRLS) electrical wires are manufactured by using electrolytic grade copper to ensure superior conductivity. Insulated with FRLS PVC compound formulated and manufactured in-house, Flamegard has special flame retardant, low smoke emitting and toxic fumes suppressing properties, in addition to the properties required by IS 694: 1990. During a fire, ordinary PVC insulated wires give out thick black smoke and toxic fumes of hydrochloric acid gas. This impairs visibility and hampers rescue operations. Flamegard, on the contrary, not only emits very little smoke and toxic gases, but also retards the spread of fire. It is thus ideal for concealed and conduit wiring in multi-storied high rise buildings such as hotels, banks, hospitals, factories, commercial and residential complexes, etc. Flamegard wires go through rigorous tests to ensure the highest standards of quality, and are also backed by the Tariff Advisory Committee and Fire Insurance Approval.
