Introduction

When you have finally bought your dream home, you do everything to make its interior as pretty as you always wanted. However here is something that most people miss thinking about— Firewall Protection.

Decor is surely the front face of your home but you must take measures to keep the core of your home strong and protected. In this article you will find some important facts and figures about everything related to housefires, how you can prevent them from happening and what does Century Firewall offer to your home. Let’s dive right into it.

Housefires in India and can they be avoided?

The rate of housefires in India is alarmingly high. Considering India is a developing country, therefore much awareness is not undertaken for fire hazards and protection against them. Following is the most recent fire accident data conducted in a survey:

Fire Accidents in India (2015-2019)

Basis 2015 2019
Number Of Fire Accidents
18,450
11,037
Number Of Deaths
17,700
10,915


Almost 35 people in India die every day due to fire accidents and mishappenings. As per the recent data given by the NCRBs ADSI reports, a major chunk of these accidents do not include Combustible Factories but it includes the Residential Areas.

And it completely makes sense because combustible factories are especially equipped with all technology and extinguishers to avoid such mishaps. On the other hand, residential areas consist of simple family homes. But awareness has made gradual progress.

How far are we from achieving fire-safe homes?

Although with people using firewall protection and quality electric wires, this number has been reduced to 10,000 per year, which is still 27 deaths. There is quite a long way to go for India to have fire-safe homes and workspaces. But at the same time, people are now taking initiatives to encourage fire-safe homes.

Century Firewall Technology Plywood

Housefires not only cause material damage but also affect people mentally and emotionally. CenturyPly has developed a remarkable solution with the Firewall Technology. It's a pioneer solution that offers plywood with specialized nano engineered particles embedded in their polymer matrix system, making them fire retardant. It has been certified as the best fire retardant plywood available.

Here are some of the qualities of Fire-Redundant Plywood:

● Fire-Redundant-

While other plywood catches fire immediately, CenturyPly fire-redundant plywood proves to resist fire for over 30 minutes! ( under standard test condition for a specified thickness) It has no comparison with the regular raw plywood that ignites and fuels the combustion even more.

● Gradual Fire Penetration-

As mentioned above, the Firewall Technology allows a plywood to resist catching fire for a long time. But it has been noted that it also makes the combustion process slow. This facilitates slow penetration of the fire for upto 2.5 times the thickness. Thus, in case of fire the spreading is gradual.

● Borer And Termite Control-

CenturyPly has incorporated fire-retardant technology along with the previous features of their set quality standards and other safeguards. Thus, plywood made with Firewall Technology, like all Century Plywood boards, comes with borer and termite protection, making it an all-rounder for your home.

● Flame-Retardant Chemicals-

Smoke Asphyxia i.e. The lack of oxygen in the body due to the presence of smoke and chemicals causes a major amount of deaths. Firewall Technology makes use of flame-retardant chemicals that ensure less smoke production As a result, any serious consequences are avoided.

Key Takeaways

Everyone deserves to live in a safe and protected home. So while renovating or building your sweet home, remember to go an extra mile and select the best plywood foundation. For those 1% of the times when uncertainty hits, your home will still protect you. If you are thinking about investing in quality plywood, then always choose the trusted brand CenturyPly.
