Fire Protective CoatingsIntumescent Fire Protective Coatings
Under the influence of heat the intumescent coating expands by up to 50 times to produce a charred insulating layer. Intumescent coatings are also used to improve the flame retardant qualities of combustible materials eg timber. We work in conjunction with manufacturers on each project and invite them to inspect all works. Upon approval our works will be certified by the manufacturers ensuring that the quality is of the required standard.
