Fire proof coating

 A customised fire-protection concept is needed in order to counter the negative effects of fire. Fire-protection coatings as a passive fire-protection measure plays an increasingly important role both in steel construction and in structures made of wood or concrete.

Fire-protection coatings in the factory and on site

⦁ Cementitious fireproofing
⦁ Intumescent fireproofing

Intumescent is a fire proof coating for steel that can give a highly decorative finish. It works by expanding in a fire, creating a dense char and keeps the failure temperature of the steel below its critical failure level for periods of up to 3 hours.

Cementitious fire spray is a fast and efficient method of providing up to 3 hours fire protection to structural steelwork. Used in the commercial, petro-chemical and tunnels markets, cementitious fire sprays withstand impact and abrasion, yet remain flexible to accept design changes without incurring major cost and time delays.
