xerofire® Fire Retardant wood finishing systems from Morrells are class-leading systems, providing a high quality, exceptionally clear, furniture-grade finish with EN Euro Reaction to Fire Class B-s1,d0, the best possible Euro reaction to fire performance rating for a system of this type.

Professional, fire retardant wood finishing system formulated to upgrade (or maintain) the fire-rating of a wide variety of wood-based substrates, including veneered panels, solid hard- and softwoods, plywood, MDF and wood-composite boards. The xerofire® Clear Fire Retardant Coatings system comprises of a 2K waterborne basecoat in combination with a 2K acid-catalyst clear topcoat providing a high quality, furniture-grade  Euro Class B finish.

Scope for Use

xerofire®HP Fire-Retardant Clear System provides exceptional clarity and is suitable for use with most solid timbers, veneers, MDF and composite boards, giving the architect, specifier and designer a wide range of substrate options.

xerofire®HP is suitable for use with substrates that meet the following parameters:

  1. Thickness of at least 12mm
  2. Density of at least 510kg/m3
  3. Rating of at least D-s2,d0

xerofire®HP Fire Retardant Clear System

  1. xerofire® Isolator - a clear barrier-coat to prevent potential discolouration by acid-sensitive timbers
  2. xerofire®HP Basecoat - a clear waterborne fire retardant basecoat for use under xerofire® Clear topcoat
  3. xerofire® Clear Topcoat - a clear acid-catalysed lacquer topcoat for use over xerofire® Basecoat

xerofire® Isolator

A one-pack clear barrier-coat designed to isolate timber extractives. This is recommended to avoid potential discolouration, particularly with acid-sensitive timbers and fruitwoods such as maple, cherry and ash.

xerofire®HP Clear Fire Retardant Basecoat

A two-pack waterborne basecoat offering exceptional clarity and designed to retard the propagation and spread of fire to Fire Class B-s1,d0.

During a fire, the basecoat swells to form an insulating charcoal layer. This layer prevents oxygen and heat from reaching the substrate, preventing ignition:

  1. Heat initiates degradation of the coating at around 250°C
  2. The basecoat reacts to form char
  3. The char expands
  4. Expansion prevents heat from reaching substrate
  5. Char eventually solidifies

xerofire®HP Clear Topcoat

A two-pack acid-catalyst furniture grade clear lacquer topcoat rated to FIRA 6250 Severe Use.
