How Do You Make Steel Fire Resistant?

The most cost-effective and responsible way to ensure your steel structures are protected from fire is by using fire resistant coatings. Once applied, the coating forms a protective layer over the surface that, although doesn’t fireproof the entire structure, slows down the spread of fire. Above all, this provides people inside the building with more time in order to escape from the fire.

Does Fire Retardant Paint for Steel Really Work?

Yes, applying intumescent coatings to metal structures is an effective way to slow down flame spread on any building. Most importantly, it provides vital time for residents or anyone inside the building to escape during a fire.
