FAQs

What is FireGuardia?

FireGuardia is an engineering and manufacturing company specializing in non-carcinogenic, eco-friendly smart fire protection for commercial and residential construction, textile, and manufacturing industries. We will change the way products are treated for fire suppression by offering a 100% non-carcinogenic alternative to present-day fire retardants.

​

FireGuardia prevents fires, safeguards life, and protects property.

What materials do you use?

Our products enforce a circular economy by using previously used and/or demolished materials. ​

​

• A fireproof thermal insulator

• Non-carcinogenic 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

• Non-toxic to humans, pets, plants, trees, and wildlife

• Sustainably sourced

• Won't create hazardous material waste

Our environmentally-conscious composition may be used in tandem 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. 

Yes, we have a mobile app designed for remote access to your smart fire protection system. Our app puts fire safety in the palm of your hands.
