KAUKAUNA, Wis. -- Expera Specialty Solutions has announced its newly branded Flame-Gard™ Technology. Expera provides flame-resistant solutions for multiple end-use applications.

"Flame-resistant papers will char when exposed to a flame, and will not 'support' combustion, self-extinguishing when the flame source is removed," explained Jeff Murphy, Sales and Marketing Director for Expera Specialty Solutions.

Expera produces flame-resistant papers across multiple applications. From utility grades and papers used in building and construction, to school craft papers, Expera's innovative technology provides targeted protection.

Flame-Gard™ technology can be applied to customers' products based on their specific needs. In addition, papers are produced bleached, natural, or with colors and can also come with Chain of Custody certification and carry additional sustainability benefits.
