Overview
Fire-retardant coatings reduce a material’s contribution to a fire. Intumescent coatings on structural steel expand into an insulating char under heat, delaying the point at which the steel loses strength — buying critical evacuation and response time.
Where it’s used
- Structural steel beams and columns
- Surfaces and substrates requiring a reduced reaction-to-fire
- Industrial, commercial and infrastructure projects

Frequently asked questions
How does intumescent coating protect steel?
Under heat it swells into an insulating char that slows the steel from reaching the temperature where it loses load-bearing strength, extending its fire resistance.
