Intumescent Painting of Structural Steelwork

At Pro Fix Ltd, we specialise in providing quality passive fire protection solutions and our intumescent painting service is designed to safeguard your structural steelwork against the devastating effects of fire.

 

Intumescent painting, also known as intumescent coating or fireproof paint, is a specially formulated paint system that expands when exposed to high temperatures, forming a protective layer of insulating foam. This expansion occurs due to the heat and it transforms the paint into a thick, fire-resistant char. This char provides an effective barrier, delaying the heat transfer to the underlying steel structure during a fire incident.
