Fire protection coatings play a critical role in protecting steel structures and buildings during a fire. Our fire protection specialists apply intumescent coatings and fire-resistant paint systems that help preserve structural integrity and meet essential fire safety regulations.
As experienced intumescent paint contractors, we work across commercial, industrial and public sector projects throughout the UK. Our certified coating systems provide reliable fire resistance while meeting strict safety and compliance standards.
Intumescent coatings provide one of the most effective forms of passive fire protection for structural steel.
When exposed to high temperatures, the coating expands to form an insulating char layer. This protective barrier slows the transfer of heat to the steel beneath and helps maintain the structural stability of the building.
Depending on the system used, intumescent coatings can provide:
This protection allows valuable time for evacuation and emergency response during a fire.
Our team applies intumescent coatings according to manufacturer specifications and fire safety regulations to ensure full compliance.
Not every property or structure is the same, which is why we offer a range of fire-resistant coating options to meet different site conditions, aesthetics, and fire rating requirements. These include:
We work with leading manufacturers including Nullifire, Sherwin-Williams and Jotun to ensure reliable and certified fire protection performance.
We are also fully accredited FIRAS applicators, so you can trust us to follow the highest standard. This is a voluntary accreditation, that involves rigorous checks and test. Get in touch to find out more about this certification and more.
Our fire protection coatings are commonly applied to structures across a wide range of industrial and commercial environments. Typical applications include structural steel frameworks, warehouses and distribution centres, manufacturing facilities, commercial buildings, and public infrastructure projects.
Each fire protection system is carefully selected to meet the building design, required fire rating, and relevant regulatory standards.
Every fire protection project follows a structured process to ensure reliable and compliant results.
Site Assessment
We assess the structure, substrate and required fire rating before selecting the appropriate coating system.
Surface Preparation
Our team prepares steel surfaces to ensure proper adhesion of the fire protection coating.
Coating Application
We apply intumescent coatings using specialist equipment to achieve the required thickness and fire rating.
Inspection & Certification
After application, we provide documentation and certification confirming the fire protection system meets specification.
We are fully accredited FIRAS applicators, meaning our fire protection work meets strict third-party certification standards.
Our team also holds industry qualifications including:
All projects follow strict safety procedures and include method statements, compliance documentation and fire rating certification upon completion.
Intumescent paint is a specialist coating that expands when exposed to heat, forming a protective layer that insulates structural steel during a fire.
Depending on the system applied, intumescent coatings can provide 60, 90 or 120 minutes of fire resistance.
Yes. Fire protection systems must meet strict regulations and are often inspected and certified to confirm compliance.
