Black Flame Retardant Plastic Sheeting: Lightweight Protection with Built-In Fire Safety

Whether you're protecting valuable equipment, building a temporary structure, or designing an eye-catching display, fire safety should never be an afterthought. That's why 4 mil Black Flame Retardant Plastic Sheeting is such a smart solution.

This lightweight, carbon-filled poly sheeting is infused with a fire retardant additive—designed to help prevent flame spread while offering versatile protection in a wide range of settings. From aircraft components and museum exhibits to Halloween haunted houses and construction projects, this product delivers reliable coverage without compromising safety.

🔥 Why Choose Fire Retardant Plastic Sheeting?

Not all plastic is created equal. Most polyethylene film is flammable and can contribute to the spread of fire—posing a real risk in many applications.

Black FR Plastic Sheeting solves that problem by incorporating fire retardant additives into the film itself. This built-in safety feature can reduce flame propagation, giving you added peace of mind in environments where people, equipment, or flammable materials are present.

🖤 Why the Black Color Matters

Aside from its sleek, professional appearance, the black color offers visual privacy, UV resistance, and light control—making it especially useful for:

• Darkroom and photo studio setups

• Theatrical backdrops and stage production

• Temporary walls in film or entertainment venues

• Blocking out light for sensitive materials or machinery

When appearance matters as much as function, black FR plastic strikes the perfect balance.
