WELP2 GREY FABRIC
FLEXIBLE AND LIGHT FLAME RETARDANT FABRIC WITH UNE EN 13501-1 CERTIFICATION
WELP2 is a flame retardant fabric for high temperatures composed by a fiberglass nucleus that incorporates a coating based on a polymer on both sides providing resistance to abrasion and waterproofing in front of liquids and fumes. WELP2 is a flexible and light fabric, easy to handle and, in addition, thanks to its polymer, it can be cut without being frayed.
WELP2 is a versatile fabric, with the official certification of flame retardant textile materials according to EN ISO 13501-1, thanks to its waterproofing, it can be used in both indoors installations and outdoors. Being a flame retardant fabric, which is light, and easy to use and that can be cut without being frayed; it can be used to tailor big flame retardant cases, expansion joints, laggings, blankets for valves, spreads, etc.
The features of this fabric also allow it to offer protection in front of basic welding and light cut tasks, because its coating repels sparks and avoids that incandescent projections get stuck into the fabric when used vertically.
WELP2 is certified in 2023 with regulation UNE EN 13501-1 - Classification according to behavior in front of fire of construction materials and edification elements - achieving one of the best possible results, A2 s1 d0 classification. It also meets regulation UNE EN ISO 15025 - Protection against heat and flames - with a A1-A2 result.
