Intumescent and Fire Retardant Coatings

Industrial operations involving very high heats, as well as highly flammable substances like gas, oil or a variety of chemicals are aware of their susceptibility to fires. Because of the high risk of fire, special precautions have to be taken to ensure the safety of your structure and your employees.

Intumescent and fire retardant coatings can provide a layer of protection when you are working with flammable substances or high heats. However, since fires can start anywhere, being protected is always a good idea . Intumescent coatings swell up when exposed to fire and create a thick, protective barrier. Fire retardant coatings help to slow the spread of fire by preventing the items to which it has been applied from igniting.

Both intumescent and fire retardant coatings can be applied on items that have the most value to your operations or on those items that are most in danger of igniting thanks to their proximity to high heats or flammable substances. By applying these substances, you can reduce the risk to your employees and better protect the investment in your infrastructure and materials.
