Flame-retardant cardboard 5L can – Eurocarton

The 5L container is the preferred solution for the economical and large-scale treatment of temporary cardboard sets and installations (public access buildings, events, museum displays).

Eurocarton is a professional, colorless product designed to make cardboard flame-retardant, thus preventing its contribution to the spread of fire. This treatment is a regulatory requirement in all public access buildings. Our formula is M1 certified according to the NF P92-512 standard. Purchasing the 5L container guarantees you will acquire a sufficient quantity of this certified cardboard fire retardant to cover your large-scale project needs. To fully understand the implications of the M1 classification, please see our article: Understanding the M1 fire safety standard for public access buildings.

Le Bidon de 5L est le format le plus avantageux en termes de coûts. Il offre le meilleur prix au litre, ce qui est crucial pour la rentabilité des chantiers traitant de grandes quantités de carton. Concernant la couverture, ce bidon vous permet de traiter une surface totale de 20 m² de carton (5 litres x 4 m²/L) en respectant rigoureusement le dosage M1 certifié. C’est la solution la plus efficace pour les grandes installations d’exposition ou de décors nécessitant un traitement ignifugeant carton.

The 5L can offers great application flexibility:

• Versatility: Ideal for application with a professional paint sprayer (large surfaces) or by dipping (small cardboard items).
• Ease of use: For localized or manual applications, an empty sprayer is included free of charge with your 5L can, allowing for easy and precise transfer of the product.

While handling the can is slightly less convenient than with a ready-to-use sprayer, the time saved on refills and the cost savings on large surfaces more than compensate for this.

The M1 Fire Retardant Treatment Certificate is the essential official document to present to safety commissions. The effectiveness of the treatment relies on adherence to the M1 dosage, proof of which you provide yourself via a system of numbered stickers.

Here is the procedure:

1. Receipt: You will receive, along with your 5L container, the blank M1 Certificate and the self-adhesive stickers that prove the use of the required quantity (in this case, for 20 m²).
2. Validation: Once the treatment with the cardboard fire retardant is complete, you fill out the certificate and affix the stickers to the document.
3. Certification: You return the completed certificate to us by email. We officially certify it and return it to you, ready for presentation.

The certificate of conformity is linked to the formula of the cardboard fire retardant, which is identical regardless of the format. This process guarantees the integrity and traceability of your M1 compliance.

The 5L container contains a non-toxic solution, but it must be used on clean, dry cardboard. Observe basic safety precautions: use in a well-ventilated area and keep away from heat sources. The M1 certification test report applies to cardboard with a specific density and thickness, covering most professional uses (decorations, stands). For any needs regarding fireproofing cardboard on specific materials, we advise you to contact us to verify full compliance before starting your project.

Yes, Eurocarton is a product entirely manufactured in France (SNPI), guaranteeing reliability and traceability for your public access building projects. Once the cardboard is treated according to the M1 dosage and kept indoors and dry, the effect of the cardboard fire retardant is considered unlimited. Therefore, you will not need to re-treat the substrate, ensuring long-term compliance for your installations.
