The FireShield Series incorporates a proprietary fire-retardant treatment that penetrates the wood’s core, achieving a Class B flame spread rating (ASTM E84) and smoke development index ≤450. This makes it compliant with fire safety regulations for public assembly spaces in North America, Europe, and Asia.
Despite its fire-resistant properties, the flooring doesn’t compromise on sports performance. It maintains a ball rebound rate of ≥88% and shock absorption of ≥50%, suitable for basketball, volleyball, and badminton. The surface layer uses FSC-certified maple wood, with a UV-cured coating that resists scratches and stains.
“Fire safety is a top priority for public sports venues, but it often comes at the cost of performance,” said Ms. Elena Rodriguez, Limei’s Product Safety Director. “The FireShield Series eliminates that trade-off, offering venue operators peace of mind without sacrificing the quality athletes expect. Early adoptions include municipal sports centers in Chicago and London.”
The FireShield Series is now available globally, with a 15-year warranty covering fire resistance and performance.
