FAQs

What is FireGuardia?

FireGuardia is an innovation engineering company specializing in non-toxic, eco-friendly flame retardants for the construction, textile, and manufacturing industries. By harnessing non-toxic active and passive fire protection we will change the way products are treated for fire suppression by offering 100% non-toxic fireproofing solutions.

​

FireGuardia prevents fires, safeguards lives, and protects property.

What materials do you use?

Our products will enforce a circular economy by optimizing material sourcing using previously used and/or demolished materials. Our solutions:​

​

• Have a fireproof thermal insulator

• Create non-toxic applications for skin, fabrics, or wood

• Do not release toxic VOCs, vapors, fume, or smoke when exposed to fire

• Actively and passively prevent the spread of flames

• Are non-toxic to humans, pets, plants, trees, and wildlife

• Sustainably sourced

• Won't create hazardous waste

Our environmentally-conscious solution can be used with other flammable materials, such as textiles, polyurethane foam, and 3D-printed parts.​

How does it work?

FireGuardia products rely on thermal diffusivity, intumescence and ablation.

An intumescent is a substance that swells as a result of heat exposure, thus increasing in volume and decreasing in density. Intumescent materials used in fire protection increase their volume significantly under the influence of heat -- at approximately 392° F / 200° C.

Our product actively and passively increases resistance when exposed to extreme heat -- the material expands and as it expands, acts as an insulator. Our product is activated at around 212° F / 100°C and withstands temperatures well beyond 5972° F / 3300° C with resilience over multiple iterations from the instant of heat exposure to beyond 30 mins, depending on the scenario.
