With boiling water proof marine grade quality standards, Pragati fire retardant plywood is uniquely processed for creating a super resistance from fire. We manufactue fire retardant plyas per IS:5509 specifications that ensures the flammability test, rate of burning and flames to penetrate in plywood as per the Bureau of Indian Standards

Pragati f.r.p. is advisable to be used in public places, where the risk of fire has to be reduced. The areas such as in kitchen woodwork of large restaurants, interior woodwork public auditoriums, theatres and banquet halls.
