Saving Lives

Fires are a major cause of death and injuries. It is estimated that 4,300 persons are killed in the United States each year and 27,000 are injured. For the European Union the estimates are over 4,000 killed and 80,000 injuries per year. Many products are made safer through the appropriate use of flame retardants but still more could be done to improve fire safety further.
