Abstract
The background for considering decorative wood panels in the overall evaluation of materials and products which may contribute to fire hazard is briefly reviewed. State-of-the-art approaches to fire resistance for these products are summarized, with reference to the broader subject of fire retardants for wood. Some areas for potential development, and specific research needs are suggested.
