This report examines the latest developments in the flame retardant industry. It focuses on the companies with the largest market share, covering their new products and business news. The trend is for the larger players to purchase companies with other types of technology, to broaden their product offering. This provides protection as market forces drive customers away from some types of flame retardants. For example, there has been legislation against the use of halogenated compounds, although this is now being shown to be severely detrimental to safety in fire as these agents are very effective at saving lives. This report discusses the current state of play in the marketplace for fire retardants.
