Thankfully, devastating fires aren't usually an everyday occurrence, and part of the reason that is true is because of flameproofing.  We don't hear about flameproofing very often because the tragedies that flameproofing has prevented doesn't make the news.

While these tragic events were heart-wrenching, we have learned some valuable lessons from them, ones that have made us smarter and safer when it comes to fires.
