A fire-resistant retail product packaging, such as sleeves, pouches, wraps, and the like, that is capable of containing fires of high intensity for products such as lithium-ion batteries. The fire-resistant paper comprises Kraft paper with a preferred eight of 40 to 60 pounds/3,000 ft.sup.2, and a fire-resistant ink applied to each side of the Kraft paper. The fire-resistant ink includes an acrylic resin, a dispersant, and a boron compound, and optionally, talc and a molybdate compound. When heated, the fire-resistant ink preferably converts the Kraft paper into a non-combustible and heat shielding substance.

The invention comprises a fire retardant board comprising a core formed from flute paper, wherein the flute paper is pre-impregnated with a flame retardant. The core is formed as a three dimensional body presenting a first face and a second face opposed to said first face and a wall structure which defines a plurality of channels intersecting the first face at an angle (a) which is 90 degrees or less than 90 degrees. The board further comprises a first liner attached to the first face and an adhesive arranged to fix the first liner to the first face of the core. The invention further comprises a method for manufacturing a fire retardant board comprising the steps of providing a core formed from flute paper, which is pre-impregnated with a flame retardant, applying an adhesive to the first face of the core, and laminating a first liner to the first face of the board.
