Passive fire protection across the UK

Deliver a full range of structural steel fire protection solutions, from intumescent and cementitious coatings to board systems with fire resistance up to 240 minutes, ensuring compliance with building standards and project requirements

structural steel protection
Intumescent coatings
Intumescent coatings are one of the most cost-effective solutions for protecting structural steel, providing fire resistance ratings of 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes. These coatings are available in water-based formulations for internal use and solvent-based systems for external applications. Decorative topcoats in a range of RAL colours are available to meet architectural requirements. After application, dry film thickness (DFT) is measured to verify that the required fire protection performance has been achieved.
Cementitious coatings
Cementitious coatings are a fire protection system based on multi-layer spray application, designed to protect structural steel and concrete elements from fire exposure. The material is mixed with water to form a homogeneous slurry and applied by spraying directly onto the structure, following its contours and filling hard-to-reach areas. This is a cost-effective fire protection solution, commonly used where a decorative finish is not required
Board systems
Fire protection board systems provide a clean, dry installation method, combining a neat finish with high levels of fire protection performance. These systems are designed to provide protection of up to 240 minutes and are installed around steel columns and beams as box encasements. Depending on the selected board type, they can also provide a decorative finish
We carry out all types of structural steel fire protection works, firestopping, and fire compartmentation—from steel cladding and boarding to intumescent coatings and cementitious spray systems, providing up to 2 hours of fire protection to steel members
We have more than 12 years of experience in the construction industry, supported by a trained and accredited team of engineers, site operatives, and project managers
Structural steel fire protection
Steel structures are used in approximately 70% of modern multi-storey frame buildings. Properly specified and installed fire protection for load-bearing steel elements is a key part of the fire safety strategy for such buildings
External and internal steel fire protection
Fire ratings from 30 - 240 minutes
Cementitious coatings
Intumescent thin-film coatings and paints
Heavy board-based steel protection (e.g. Calcium Silicate)
Light board-based steel protection (e.g. rock fibre)
