Fire-protective intumescent coatings are applied to various building materials like steel and wood using specialized methods. When subjected to intense heat, these coatings expand, creating an insulating barrier. This char-like layer enhances fire resistance and impedes flame propagation potentially giving people longer to escape in the event of a fire.
Intumescent paint spraying on metal, wood and more…..
We provide on-site intumescent coatings at your premises or project location for the construction and industrial sectors.
In addition, our facility at Eastgates, Colchester can handle a variety of components up to 13 metres long, 3.5 metres high, and 3.5 metres wide in our spray booth which can heat up to 80˚C for extra quick drying times, for most types of intumescent, fireproofing coatings.
High temperatures compromise the strength of common building materials. Even steel can fail rapidly under extreme heat. Intumescent coatings protect structural steel during cellulosic fires, maintaining load-bearing capacity for up to two hours and allowing crucial evacuation time.
Advantages of our Intumescent Coating:
- Easier to apply and maintain than concrete casings or fire-resistant boards
- Compatible with our Decorative or Protective finishes
- Allows more space for ceiling and wall fixtures
Applications include sports venues, transportation hubs, factories and high rise buildings. Protection levels range from 30 to 120 minutes. Our intumescent coating is a VOC-free, waterborne coating that meets green building standards.
Durability and Efficiency:
- Superior weathering performance compared to other reactive coatings
- Reduced long-term maintenance costs
- Sustained fire protection effectiveness
Application benefits:
- High solids content
- Single-coat coverage up to 1,500 microns dry film thickness
- Wide range of application conditions
- Provides quick drying times for improved productivity
So, no matter what the size or location of your intumescent, fireproof coating requirement, please give us a call on 01206 866880 to see how we can help you.
