A fire-retardant sheet material, the manufacture thereof and a fire-retardant polymer composition are disclosed. The sheet is manufactured from a composition of polyethylene, 55 to 75% by weight of the composition of alumina trihydrate and/or magnesium hydroxide, and optionally zinc borate and/or calcium carbonate, at least 2% by weight of the composition being in the form of a graft copolymer with an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid or anhydride. The composition has a melt index of 0.05 to 4.0 dg/min. In an embodiment, the graft copolymer has a shear viscosity at 200 DEG C. and a shear rate of 400 sec-1 that is not more than 50% of that of the polyethylene. The sheet material may be used for, in particular, ceiling tile. In embodiments of the composition, 60 to 90% by weight may be alumina trihydrate and/or magnesium hydroxide, and optionally zinc borate and/or calcium carbonate.
