List of featured suppliers of INTUMESCENT COATINGS CERTIFIRE APPROVED on Building Products Index
Intumescent coatings that are Certifire approved refer to a type of coating material that swells up and expands to form a protective barrier in the event of a fire. This expansion is caused by the heat from the fire, which triggers a chemical reaction in the coating. Certifire is a certification scheme that ensures that the intumescent coatings used in buildings meet rigorous safety and performance standards. The approval process involves testing and evaluation of the coating materials to ensure they can provide the required level of fire protection.
