Fire-Resistant Coating

In a fire it expands with heat to form an insulating foam layer, delaying the load-bearing steel from reaching its critical temperature. The aim is to keep the structure standing for the specified period and gain time for evacuation.

CoraFire

CoraFire is an advanced coating system developed with intumescent fire-retardant paint technology, designed to protect steel and load-bearing structural members against the effects of high temperatures. In a fire, it reacts actively to the heat and expands to form a thick, carbonised insulating layer.

APPLICATION NOTES

Points to watch on site.

  • Thickness is calculated separately for each member; a single value cannot be applied to the entire structure.
  • Primer and topcoat must be selected from a product family compatible with the fire-protective coat.
  • Applied thickness measurement records must be retained as required by regulations.
