Flame retardant finishes and paints from the Crown Trade Timonox range have been specified to decorate communal areas of two nine-storey blocks of flats in a refurbishment programme in Nottingham. All surfaces were finished with the company's Timonox Acrylic Eggshell. The requirement was to use a coating system which would reinstate the original Class O rating to circulation areas and escape routes to slow the potential spread of flame in the event of a fire. As well as meeting British Fire Safety standards, the range has also been tested by Warrington fire to meet forthcoming European fire test requirements. The product was also specified due to the wide selection of colours that are offered.
