Over the past decade, major urban fire incidents have significantly influenced global awareness of building material safety and regulatory standards.
Among them, Notre-Dame Cathedral fire became a widely recognized case that reinforced the importance of fire-resistant construction materials in both permanent and temporary structures.
These events have accelerated regulatory attention toward flame-retardant materials used in large-span buildings such as sports domes, exhibition halls, and industrial shelters.
What is M1 Fire Classification?
The M1 classification is part of the French fire reaction standard system (M0–M4), where:
M1 = Non-flammable or very limited combustibility
Materials must demonstrate minimal flame propagation
Widely recognized in European public safety and construction compliance frameworks
M1-certified materials are commonly required or preferred in:
Sports and recreational domes
