F’Lineo is a range of intumescent varnishes and paints that protect buildings against the flames of a fire.
Designed for sheltered indoor and outdoor wood, these fire-retardant solutions are also effective on wood derivatives (plywood, OSB, MDF).
There are many advantages to using wood in construction. It’s a noble, particularly aesthetic material that can be used for a variety of applications. It is nonetheless a flammable and combustible material. Its use requires particular vigilance to ensure the safety and protection of the wooden structure in the event of fire. Among the fireproof solutions available on the market, intumescent products are an effective protection against fire.
Intumescent varnishes are fire-retardant products that provide a high level of protection against the risk of fire. F’Lineo’s range includes two intumescent varnishes with common characteristics:
W’Fire WB F003 intumescent varnish is classified B-S2, D0 (according to the European standard, also called “Euroclasse”).
W’Fire WB F004 intumescent varnish is classified B-S1, D0 (according to the European standard, also called “Euroclasse”).
As a complement to the intumescent varnish W’Fire WB F004, the addition of the W’Fire WB F005 topcoat enhances resistance to humidity and water stagnation. The combined system complies with the requirements of the EN 13501-1 standard, achieving a B-s1,d0 classification. Like the rest of the range, this product is designed for sheltered interior and exterior wood, as well as wood derivatives.
Intumescent paint is also the coating of choice for combining fire safety and aesthetics. The formula developed as part of the F’Lineo offer is easy to apply and gives a white matte finish. F’Lineo intumescent paint considerably reduces the flammability of wood materials and slows the development of fire, in accordance with NF EN 13501-1. This fire-retardant product is classified B-S1, D0 (according to the European standard, also called “Euroclasse“).

Intumescent products provide passive protection against fire hazards. If the wood to which the intumescent finish is applied is subjected to the heat generated by the fire, the product will swell and form a microporous foam known as a “meringue”, retarding the wood’s temperature rise. Intumescent solutions limit the spread of fire and allow you to evacuate to safety. Several intumescent coatings are available, depending on requirements. The application of these products requires the use of professional equipment to achieve the final result, while ensuring the safety of those handling them. ‘Lineo offers a range of accessories to complement its solutions.
