Spanish term (edited):
inflamable de primera (in this context)
Selected
highly inflammable
My interpretation of this phrase is that it is indicating that the materials in question are, to a very high degree, susceptible of catching fire--in other words, that they are highly inflammable.
From Yahoo: Results 1 - 10 of about 63,600 for "highly inflammable"
In American English, "highly flammable" could also be used.
Suerte.

Class 1 flammable liquid (in Argentina)
It looks like in Argentina this is a classification for combustible materials. Not sure about an equivalent in the US, might be Class B, Division 2:
