Intumescent Coatings

Intumescent coatings are specialised paints that have gained popularity in recent years due to their exceptional fire protection properties.

These coatings are specifically designed to protect steel and other structural materials from the effects of fire by expanding to form a thick, insulating layer when exposed to high temperatures.

This unique property makes intumescent coatings an essential component of any fire protection system.

At Global Coatings, we specialise in the application of high-quality intumescent coatings that offer unmatched protection against fire

Intumescent coatings are designed to provide passive fire protection to steel and other structural materials by providing a barrier that resists heat, flames, and smoke.

This is particularly important for items that are protecting critical components or for structural steel.

We take pride in our ability to apply coatings that meet and exceed the highest industry standards and specifications, making us the preferred choice of engineers, architects, and contractors.
