Gary Wolfe, Executive Vice President of IFTI states, “We have proven that DC315, when applied to our specifications, per the test reports, is a low cost, easy to use solution to a building code issue.” Mr. Wolfe goes on to say that, “We have passed NFPA 286 testing for Thermal Barrier and also testing for the Ignition Barrier, using both the NFPA 286 standards to show the power and performance of our DC 315.
