An intumescent fire protective coating
Intumescent fire protective coatings are advanced coatings primarily designed to shield structures from the damaging effects of cellulosic fires. These coatings are typically thin films that expand significantly when exposed to high temperatures, transforming into a thick, insulating char layer. This expansion acts as a thermal barrier, protecting the substrate, such as steel, wood, or concrete, from reaching critical temperatures that could lead to structural failure.
The intumescent coating process is driven by a chemical reaction that activates under extreme heat, causing the material to swell and form a robust foam-like layer. This char layer effectively reduces heat transfer, preserving the integrity of the underlying material during a fire event. The thin-film nature of these coatings allows them to be applied in aesthetically pleasing finishes, maintaining the visual appeal of structures without compromising safety.
The benefits of using intumescent fire protective coatings include:
- Enhanced Durability: Engineered to resist environmental conditions, these coatings provide long-lasting fire protection.
- Cost-Effective Application: The thin-film formulation requires fewer coats and quicker application times, reducing both material and labor costs.
- Efficient Processing: With faster curing times, these coatings can meet tight project timelines.
- Aesthetic Versatility: Available in various colors and finishes, these coatings blend seamlessly into architectural designs without sacrificing fire safety.
This versatile solution is suitable for a wide range of environments, from commercial buildings and industrial facilities to residential spaces, ensuring compliance with fire safety regulations while offering flexibility in design
- Long-Term Durability: Once applied, the coating is maintenance-free, reducing costs and operational disruptions.
- Enhanced Fire Protection:Offers up to 120 minutes of fire resistance, effectively safeguarding critical structural elements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Fire-resistant paints are designed to protect critical infrastructure. An intumescent paint will char, and a protective barrier will form over the coating.
Generally, they are off-white in colour but can achieve the desired colour by coating them with a top coat.
The concrete surface should be primed first before applying the fire-intumescent coating to it.
PyroGuard ConPro has a fire rating up to 120 minutes & beyond from renowned national testing labs.
PyroGuard ConPro is applied via spray or brush, with each coat allowed to dry before the next is applied.
