Flame retardants refer to a variety of substances that are added to combustible materials to prevent fires from starting or to slow the spread of fire and to provide additional escape time.
The term “flame retardant” refers to a function, not a family of chemicals. A variety of different chemistries, with different properties and molecular structures, act as flame retardants and these chemicals are often combined for effectiveness. Today, flame retardants are used in four major areas:
- Electronics and Electronic Devices
- Building and Construction Materials
- Furnishings
- Transportation
The value of Flame Retardants is recognized by many different manufacturing sectors that rely on added protection in their products, as well as a number of independent studies that also outline their benefits.
The use of flame retardants is especially important today, as the large volume of electrical and electronic equipment in today’s buildings, coupled with a larger volume of combustible materials, can increase the potential for fire hazards.

Haiwang is a global manufacturer for industrial and commercial purpose flame retardants. The company’s comprehensive customer service, environmental stewardship, and cutting-edge innovation have transformed Haiwang into a worldwide non halogenated flame retardant producer.
At Haiwang, our strengths are our clients. Customers provide us the milestones, and in return, we offer the solutions.
Haiwang is a world-wide supplier of flame retardant compounds to the plastics industry. Our product lines include chlorinated, brominated and phosphate ester based fire retardant chemistries. Haiwang’s flame retardant compounds can be successfully used to meet a broad number of Underwriter’s Laboratories flammability standards. Resin compounders and master batchers tend to be ideal candidates for Haiwang flame retardants.
While a large number of flame retardants are considered safe to use, there has been growing concern regarding the use of particular flame retardant chemicals. Therefore, it is essential for manufactures and suppliers of flame retardants, and retailers of products containing flame retardants to conduct flame retardants testing.
Polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE), for example, is a common flame retardant used to reduce the risk of fire in a wide variety of products. PBDEs are present in products such as children’s pajamas and computer’s and are excellent flame retardants. However, PBDEs have been accumulating in the environment and in human bodies. Recent reports have indicated that exposure to low concentrations of PBDEs may result in irreparable damage to the nervous and reproductive systems, and therefore they are classed as reprotoxins.
Haiwang is the premier supplier of widely-used flame retardant and smoke suppressant due to its versatility and low cost. We provides high-performing alternatives for manufacturers seeking halogen-free flame retardant additives.
These flame retardants enable environmentally compatible protection and less aggressive smoke in all types of rubber and plastic products. Our scientists have developed and formulated a wide variety of ATH grades that are customized to client and application-specific requirements. Haiwang’s products help a diverse range of global customers comply with strict fire safety regulations.
Brominated flame retardants (BFRs) are mixtures of man-made chemicals that are added to a wide variety of products, including for industrial use, to make them less flammable. They are used commonly in plastics, textiles and electrical/electronic equipment.
Flame retardants are materials or chemicals that are used to deter or extinguish flame propagation in plastics, resins, textiles, elastomers, coatings, adhesives, and sealants. The most important product categories are brominated compounds, organophosphorus compounds, chlorinated compounds, aluminum trihydroxide, antimony oxide, boron compounds, magnesium hydroxide, and “other” flame retardant products. In 2016, the most important flame retardant product types by volume were aluminum trihydroxide, with 38% of the total market, followed by organophosphorus compounds (18%), brominated compounds (17%), and antimony oxides (8%). The product mix varies widely by region.
China is one of the largest producers and users of brominated flame retardants (BFRs) in the world. This has led to ubiquitous environmental occurrence of the main BFRs commercially available in China, namely polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCDs), and tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA).
There are more than 200 different types of flame retardants, which producers classify according to their major constituent elements. The elements determine their chemical reaction with fire and therefore their suitability in different applications.
Flame retardants is our business. Haiwang offers one of the world’s most comprehensive flame retardant portfolios, supported by a global network of sales and technical support. Our products include bromine-, phosphorus-, and antimony-based flame retardants, other synergists and smoke suppressants, and as a leading producer we maintain an aggressive commitment to technological innovation and product development.
Flame retardants are used in many consumer products, including electronics, clothing, and furniture, and as a result, scientists find the chemicals in outdoor air, household dust, and human blood and milk.
Haiwang offers highest grade pure chemicals for end-product manufacturers. Our brominated flame retardants are used in construction, textiles, plastics and many other fields.
Haiwang is a leading supplier of flame retardant products used in a variety of applications such as furniture foam, electronic components, enclosures and building products. Haiwang believes the public should not be forced to choose between environmental and fire safety... we must have both. To ensure we offer only those products meeting the highest of environmental and fire safety standards to our customers, our company has adopted a “greener is better” philosophy for our business and our flame retardant products.
Located in Shandong Province. Base on local rich Bromine & Salt resources and supported by Shandong government, Haiwang have grown into a world famous supplier of Flame Retardants, Oil Drilling Fluids, Functional Monomer (used in coating & painting), and other bromides.
As a famous flame retardant supplier, Haiwang has been engaged in brominated flame retardants producing since 1990s.After 2008, applying our many years of experience in brominated flame retardants, we have expanded our manufacturing portfolio to phosphate and nitrogen based flame retardants which enable can provide customer-oriented flame etardant solutions for different polymers.
