FM-Approved Non-Toxic Fire-Retardant Plastic Pallets

Non-Toxic FM-Approved Pallets

Plastic pallets can represent a substantial fire hazard in warehouses, shipping centers and long-term storage facilities. Compared to wood, conventional plastic pallets require higher sprinkler water discharge rates to deliver sufficient protection in an emergency.

FM 4996 approval provides a measure of confidence that a plastic fire retardant pallet will deliver fire protection as good as or better than its wooden counterpart. Suitable for use in any facility where fire safety is a priority, Polymer Solutions International manufactures a wide selection of FM-approved, non-halogen plastic pallets.

FM Approved Plastic insignia on palletWhat Is FM Approval?

FM Approvals is an internationally recognized, independent testing and certification agency. The organization employs evidence-based research and testing to determine whether or not a given product can meet its high standards for commercial and industrial loss prevention.

FM approval is only extended to fire-retardant plastic pallets that perform equal to or better than conventional wood pallets when it comes to heat release. In order to become FM-approved, fire retardant pallets must undergo comprehensive review and testing at a third-party lab. Regular follow-up audits ensure that integrity is maintained and FM approved plastic pallets uphold standards at all times.

The Importance of Non-Toxic, Non-Halogen Plastic Pallets

Older flame-retardant plastic pallets used halogen-based chemicals, such as decabromodiphenyl ether (deca-BDE), to coat their products. Over the past decade, a mounting body of scientific evidence has pointed to significant health problems associated with long-term exposure to deca-BDE, such as liver and thyroid damage, as well as reproductive, development and neurological impairment. For this reason, many states and industries have begun to phase out the use of deca-BDE in certain products.

Even if you’re not legally required to, choosing to use non-deca-BDE plastic pallets keeps your workers safe and positions you for future regulatory compliance, should anything change in the future.
