fire-resistant material
Heat-blocking protective fabric
Fire-resistant material is any substance that resists ignition or slows the spread of flames.
Building codes require fire-resistant materials in walls, doors, and structural elements.
The term covers treated wood, certain fabrics, and specialized coatings: The insulation is made from fire-resistant material.
Fire-resistant doesn't mean fireproof—given enough heat, most materials eventually burn.
