IRUFIRE. A Fire Retardant varnish for Wood
according to your requirements
Real protection EN 13501-1
The surface combustibility of wood is the weak point in its fire behaviour. The option of applying fire-resistant coatings for protection is an important factor to take into account.
A fire-retardant varnish can be applied on walls, ceilings and floors. Using coatings in construction is crucial for enhancing the fire performance of wood.
What are the benefits of timber construction?
Timber is the only building material that helps reduce CO2 in the atmosphere, and therefore plays a role in mitigating climate change. This makes it the construction alternative with the lowest carbon footprint. But it also has many benefits (structural strength, sustainability, greater thermal and acoustic insulation, etc.).
How do I protect wood from fire?
Its fire behaviour is often better than that of other materials. Treating the wood with a high-quality fire-retardant wood varnish can significantly improve the only weak point of this behaviour, i.e. its surface combustibility.
What standards do IRUFIRE varnishes comply with?
At Irurena, we have successfully achieved a range of IRUFIRE varnishing processes to protect wood with outstanding results in terms of reaction to fire according to the European EN 13501-1.
In the following video, you can check the effectiveness of solvent-based and water-based fire retardant varnishes on wood. In this comparison between three wooden structures, one of them has no type of fire retardant treatment, while the other two are treated with fire-retardant varnishes from Irurena, one solvent-based and the other water-based.

Solvent-based fire-retardant varnish processes for walls and ceilings
IRUFIRE REAL & INTEGRAL B-s1,d0 PUR Fire-Retardant Process
Process based on two-component acrylic products developed for wooden substrate finishes and derivatives without any previous fire-retardant treatment. Elevating the D-s2,d0 rating of a wood using IRUFIRE REAL & INTEGRAL B-s1,d0 PUR will ensure a B-s1,d0 rating.
IRUFIRE ISOLATOR II-1 + IRUFIRE REAL & INTEGRAL B-s1,d0 PUR Fire-Retardant Process
Process based on two-component acrylic products to improve the IRUFIRE REAL & INTEGRAL B-s1,d0 PUR process.
IRUFIRE REAL B-s1,d0 PUR Fire-Retardant Process
Two-component acrylic process developed for wood substrate finishes and derivatives without any previous fire-retardant treatment for all types of wood-based substrates. If you want to increase the D-s2,d0 classification of the wood, with IRUFIRE REAL B-s1,d0 PUR you will achieve the B-s1,d0 classification.
IRUFIRE INTEGRAL B-s1,d0 PUR Fire-Retardant Process
Two-component acrylic products developed for finishing fire-retardant treated wood substrates with B-s1,d0 rating. IRUFIRE INTEGRAL B-s1,d0 PUR maintains the substrate’s rating.
Water-based
Water-based fire-retardant varnish processes for walls and ceilings
IRUFIRE REAL B-s1,d0 AQUA INT-2 Fire-retardant Process
Process based on three single-component water-based products, developed for a transparent finish.
If you wish to increase the D-s2,d0 classification of the wood, with IRUFIRE REAL B-s1,d0 AQUA INT-2 you will achieve the B-s1,d0 classification.
IRUFIRE AQUA REAL & INTEGRAL B-s1,d0 INT-1 Fire-Retardant Process
Two water-based single-component product process. Made up of a white undercoat and a pigmented finish. If you want to increase the D-s2,d0 classification of the wood, with IRUFIRE AQUA REAL & INTEGRAL B-s1,d0 INT-1, you will achieve the B-s1,d0 classification.
IRUFIRE INTEGRAL B-s1,d0 AQUA INT Fire-Retardant Process
Varnishing process based on a one-component water-based acrylic product developed for wood substrate finishes with fire-retardant treatment of B-s1, d0 classification. IRUFIRE INTEGRAL B-s1, d0 AQUA INT maintains the substrate classification.
Outdoor water-based fire-retardant process
IRUFIRE REAL & INTEGRAL C-s1,d0 AQUA EXT
Process based on single-component acrylic water-based products, developed to obtain pigmented coatings for wood surfaces and its derivatives, valid for interior or exterior use.
Water-based fire-retardant process for floors
IRUFIRE REAL FLOORING Bfl-s1 AQUA Fire-Retardant Process
Process based on two-component water-based fire-retardant varnishes. The process consists of an acrylic undercoat and a polyurethane finish and has been developed for varnishes for indoor wood and parquet floors with Bfl-s1 rating.
