Fire barrier solutions: the art of protection

Advanced materials for maximum fire resistance

Fire protection is crucial for modern roofing systems - especially beneath solar panels, where the risk of fire can be higher. Our fire barrier solutions enhance both fire resistance and waterproofing, helping to prevent the spread of flames, reduce damage caused by fires, and protect people and property. Fire-resistant bituminous membranes play a key role in improving building safety in the event of fire. Freudenberg Performance Materials offers a wide range of flame-retardant nonwovens, enabling bituminous membrane manufacturers to create customized solutions.
