PIPING SYSTEM

FR-LSZH Flame-Retardant Pipe

The FR (Flame Retardant) – LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) flame-retardant pipe is a high-performance functional pipe that offers the highest level of flame resistance among plastic materials. It is manufactured by dual extrusion, combining the excellent performance and physical properties of HDPE pipe with non-toxic flame-retardant additives. It is the first and only product in Korea to have passed KS F ISO 5660-1 (Heat Release Test) and KS F 2271 (Gas Toxicity Test), thereby verifying both its flame-retardant performance and safety to the human body. As a result, it is used as a pressure pipeline for water treatment applications.

FR (Fire Retardant) – Flame-Retardant Properties

This refers to the property of being difficult to ignite when exposed to flame, or self-extinguishing once the flame source is removed (self-extinguishing property). While general PE is highly combustible, FR-LSZH PE pipes use flame-retardant additives to slow the combustion rate and suppress flame propagation.

LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) – Low Smoke and Non-Toxic Properties

This refers to the property of emitting little to no toxic gases (halogen gases) in the event of a fire, while also generating a very low amount of smoke.
- Low Smoke
- Zero Halogen

Key Features and Advantages of FR-LSZH PE Pipes

01

Maximized Fire Safety

Protection of Human Life

During a fire, the generation of toxic gases and excessive smoke is suppressed, reducing the risk of suffocation and ensuring clear visibility along evacuation routes, thereby minimizing casualties.

Protection of Property

As no corrosive gases are released, corrosion of electronic equipment and metal structures at fire sites is prevented, reducing secondary damage.

Self-Extinguishing Property

Even if ignited, the pipe self-extinguishes, making it highly effective in preventing the spread of fire.
02

Chemical and Corrosion Resistance

The pipe fully retains the excellent chemical and corrosion resistance inherent to PE, making it suitable for transporting a wide range of fluids.
03

Flexibility and Ease of Installation

Thanks to the flexibility of PE, the pipes can be supplied in coil form, allowing long lengths to be installed at once. Secure and highly airtight connections can be achieved through heat fusion, reducing installation time and overall costs.
04

Long Service Life and Low Maintenance

With outstanding durability and corrosion resistance, the pipes ensure stable long-term operation while requiring minimal maintenance, resulting in lower maintenance costs.
