Paged|Fire Retardant Plywood

European Fire Classification EN 13501-1

The standard classifies all construction products by their reaction to fire. Understanding it helps you specify the right materials for your project.

7 Main Fire Classes

A1
Non-combustible
Concrete, steel, mineral wool
A2
Non-combustible (limited organic)
Plasterboard, high-density mineral wool
B
Very limited contribution to fire← PAGED FR PRODUCTS
Rigid PVC, Paged FR plywood
C
Limited contribution to fire
Some PU foams (PIR), papered plasterboard
D
Medium contribution to fire
Most PU foams, unprotected wood/plywood
E
High contribution to fire
Expanded polystyrene with retardants
F
Easily flammable / no requirements
Unmodified expanded plastics

Smoke Generation (s)

Smoke causes two-thirds of all fire fatalities. The "s" classification indicates how much smoke a material produces when burning.

s1
Little or no smoke generation
Plasterboard, Paged FR plywood
s2
Medium smoke generation
Wood with fire-protective agents
s3
Heavy smoke generation
Rubber, polyurethane foams

Burning Droplets (d)

Burning droplets can transfer fire to distant locations. The "d" classification measures this risk.

d0
No burning droplets within 600 seconds
Mineral wool, steel, concrete
d1
Limited burning droplets/particles
Unprotected plywood
d2
Many burning droplets - can cause skin burns or spread fire
Expanded polystyrene

Paged FR = Class B-s1, d0

All Paged fire retardant products achieve class B-s1, d0 - the highest possible classification for wood-based construction materials. This means: very limited contribution to fire, minimal smoke, zero burning droplets. Products classified as B-s(1-3), d0 meet the NRO (non-fire-spreading) requirement mandated by Polish Technical Building Code for internal building elements (walls, ceilings, floors).
