KANDUI FIREFIGHTER –
FIRE RETARDANT MASTERBATCHES
It is widely used in plastic processing to prevent
ignition and limit flame spread, which can oth-
erwise lead to rapid fire propagation, structural
damage, and safety hazards. This masterbatch
contains a halogenated flame retardant agent
that interrupts the combustion cycle, prevent-
ing the plastic polymer from sustaining a flame.
Fire Fighter extends the safety life of plastic
products, reduces fire-related risks, and meets
international flammability standards. It is widely
used in various applications, including non-wo-
ven fabrics, fiber, sheet, film, and molding. Fire
