Fireproof Artificial Grass for Indoor, Events and Exhibitions

In the dynamic events industry, safety is a top priority. This also applies to the decoration of stands and event grounds. With the introduction of ONE-DNA™️ artificial grass, there is now a solution that is both aesthetically appealing and absolutely fire-safe.

Why Fire-Safe Artificial Grass?

Fire safety is essential for any event location. The risk of fire and the potential consequences such as damage to reputation, material damage, and personal injury can be drastically reduced by using fire-retardant artificial grass. ONE-DNA™️ artificial grass has undergone extensive testing and meets the strictest international and European fire safety standards without the need for chemical treatments.

Highest Fire Safety Certification: BFL S1

ONE-DNA™️ artificial grass for events has achieved the highest BFL S1 certification for products without infill sand and without fire-retardant coating or other chemicals. For products with infill sand, ONE-DNA™️ products achieve CFL S1 certification. This certification underscores the commitment to safety and sustainability. The tests were conducted by the University of Ghent according to the ISO 9239-1 standard, which determines the fire properties of floor coverings. The products also comply with the stringent European standards EN 13501-1 and EN 13501-5 for the fire classification of construction products and plastics.

Benefits of ONE-DNA™️ Artificial Grass

  • Flame-Retardant Without Chemical Treatment: ONE-DNA™️ artificial grass meets the highest fire safety standards without the need for chemical additives. This means a safer choice for events without compromising on sustainability.
  • Suitable for Events and Exhibitions: With the BFL-S1 certification, this artificial grass is highly suitable for use in exhibition halls, trade shows, and other events where large crowds gather.
  • Safe Solution for Diverse Applications: ONE-DNA™️ artificial grass is not only suitable for indoor and outdoor applications but also provides a fire-safe solution for roofs and other locations.
  • Natural and Attractive Appearance: Despite its advanced safety features, ONE-DNA™️ artificial grass retains a natural and attractive appearance. This makes it the perfect choice for events seeking an aesthetic and safe alternative.

Rules and Guidelines for Fire-Safe Artificial Grass

  • For indoor use and in public spaces, a BFL rating is required, meaning the artificial grass must meet strict fire safety requirements.
  • Artificial grass used at events must comply with the building code requirements, ensuring a high standard of safety.
  • For certain environments, such as offices or other public indoor spaces, strict fire safety checks may be required. The Euroclass system UNE EN 13501-1 measures both flame spread and smoke production.
  • ONE-DNA™️ artificial grass achieves the highest level of fire safety without adding chemical flame retardants. The BFL-S1 rating indicates that the material is flame-retardant and produces little smoke.

Additional Benefit: Take-Back System

At the end of its lifecycle, the artificial grass can be returned through our Take-Back Program. This avoids disposal costs and ensures the grass does not end up in a landfill. The artificial grass is given a new life in the form of new PE products, contributing to a circular economy and providing a sustainable solution for your event.

Fire-Safe Artificial Grass: Tomorrowland as an Example

In collaboration with Tomorrowland, we have demonstrated that ONE-DNA™ artificial grass is fully circular. Tomorrowland consciously chose fire-safe ONE-DNA™ artificial grass in combination with the Take-Back program to ensure circular reuse. Tomorrowland’s choice for this environmentally friendly approach is an example of how event organizations can actively contribute to sustainability without compromising on quality and aesthetics.
