LG Hausys Launches 'Semi-Noncombustible Sheet' Wall Material with Enhanced Fire Safety

[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Yoon-joo] LG Hausys announced on the 27th that it has launched the wall covering material 'LG Z:IN (LG Jiin) Semi-Noncombustible Sheet,' which enhances fire safety in commercial spaces.

The 'LG Z:IN Semi-Noncombustible Sheet' is a wallpaper-type wall covering product that, unlike general wallpapers using paper, PVC (polyvinyl chloride), etc., in the base layer, applies semi-noncombustible materials.

By applying semi-noncombustible materials, the product does not easily spread fire when ignited and emits fewer harmful substances during a fire. Recently, it received a semi-noncombustible performance certification from the Korea Fire Institute (KFI).

Accordingly, LG Hausys plans to supply the 'LG Z:IN Semi-Noncombustible Sheet' to commercial spaces, including multi-use facilities where the installation of noncombustible or semi-noncombustible interior finishing materials is mandatory, such as postpartum care centers, goshiwons, rest food establishments, and game rooms.

Additionally, the 'LG Z:IN Semi-Noncombustible Sheet' has excellent durability, resisting scratches or tears from external contact, making it suitable for commercial spaces used by many people.

Park Gwi-bong, Executive Director of LG Hausys Decorative Materials Division, stated, "The LG Z:IN Semi-Noncombustible Sheet was developed considering not only functionality such as fire spread prevention and enhanced safety in line with strengthened indoor building fire safety regulations but also durability and design." He added, "We will actively contribute to strengthening fire safety in buildings by expanding supply to commercial spaces such as multi-use facilities where the use of semi-noncombustible materials is mandatory."
