Intumescent Spray Fireproofing
Intumescent spray fireproofing is a passive fire protection applied as a coating to structural materials, such as steel, concrete or wood. It protects your structure by expanding when exposed to high heat, forming an insulating protective foam-like layer. It works to slow down heat transfer, protect the underlying structure and increase your building’s fire resistance. It’s known for:
Its aesthetic appeal
Being lightweight
Its versatility
Curing quickly
It can be water- or solvent-based and is great for applying to steel beams or columns, concrete, wooden structures or exposed architectural elements.
Cementitious Fireproofing
Cementitious fireproofing is a passive fire protection system using cement-based materials. Its primary purpose is to insulate and protect building materials, particularly steel, which loses its strength in high temperatures. This type of fireproofing is applied as a spray-on or trowel-applied coating. The benefits of cementitious fireproofing include:
Its affordability
Its durability
It’s non-combustible
It has a simple application process
It offers acoustic benefits
Cementitious fireproofing is best applied to:
Industrial facilities
Parking garages and tunnels
Elevator shafts
Mechanical rooms
Transformer rooms
Cementitious fireproofing is used in commercial buildings to improve fire safety and meet building codes’ fire resistance requirements.
Sprayed Fiber Fireproofing
Sprayed fiber fireproofing (also called sprayed fire resistive material or SFRM) is a type of passive fire protection applied to building elements such as steel beams, columns and concrete to enhance fire resistance. Types of sprayed fiber fireproofing include:
Mineral-based: This is made from materials like mineral wool, pearlite or vermiculite.
Gypsum-based: This is made from a mixture of gypsum and other binders and is known for its effective fire-resistive properties.
Cement-based: Cement-based fiber fireproofing is used when a more rigid and durable coating is needed.
Advantages of sprayed fiber fireproofing include:
Effective fire protection
Versatility
Cost-effectiveness
Sound insulation
It’s best applied to commercial buildings, steel structures, retrofits and renovations.
