List of featured suppliers of INTUMESCENT COATINGS External Applications on Building Products Index
Intumescent coatings for external applications refer to the type of coating material used to protect surfaces such as steel structures, walls, roofs, and other building elements from the damaging effects of fire. When exposed to extreme temperatures, these coatings will expand and form a protective layer on the surface of the material, thereby preventing the heat from penetrating the substrate. This layer of insulation will also prevent the spread of flames, as well as the release of smoke and toxic gases, providing more time for occupants to evacuate the building safely. Intumescent coatings for external applications are typically used in high-risk areas, such as industrial facilities, hospitals, educational buildings, and public spaces, where fire safety is of utmost importance.
