Fire Protection Paint Coatings UK Nationwide
Our company provides nationwide specialist fire protective paint coating service across the UK.
Intumescent paint provides a similar appearance similar to a paint finish while also producing a low odour making it ideal for confined areas. Fire retardant coatings expand when exposed to high heat levels, giving up to 240 minutes of protection; this will reduce any immediate impact of fire spreading and heat damage. The increase of temperature causes a chemical reaction; the intumescent paint expands to many times its original thickness, which provides insulating foam to protect the substrates.
Fire retardant paint coatings on public buildings are an essential health and safety requirement. The tragedy at Grenfell Tower Block in London has highlighted the importance of professional fireproof painting.
Our company provides a range of fireproof cladding and internal building coatings and paints certified for use on surfaces that are required by law.
The coatings cover a wide range of applications, from wood surfaces, structural steel, plaster ceilings, and concrete surfaces to fibreglass materials. These coatings have extensively been used in many buildings such as Buckingham Palace and Oslo Opera House.
We offer a wide range of top coatings options along with a 20 or 30-year guarantee. This water-based coating comes with a 30, 45, 60,120,240 minute protection time applied to universal beams, hollow sections, columns, and cellular beam designs.
Fire Protection for Steel
National fire regulations state that buildings must have the ability to contain a fire within compartment sections for rated times, to allow the evacuation of all occupants.
Intumescent paint can be applied over most paints and varnishes, eliminating the need for stripping. Fireproof paint is especially useful in refurbishment projects, often allowing existing architectural features to remain in place. They are Class 0 and 1 Classifications, and SBI: B/s1/d0 has been achieved on bamboo, hardwood, softwood, veneer, MDF and melamine boards. They also come in the 30, 45, 60,120,240 minute protection coating.
