Intumescent Coating
Simply Intumescents (In-tu-mes-ent) coatings are designed to slow down the spread of fire allowing more time to evacuate the building.
Intumescent coatings are designed for:
– Plasterboard
– Timber (clear coat)
– Steel
– Concrete
– PU Foam panels
– Bushfire
With a 30, 60, 90 minute rating depend on the product.
Intumescent coatings are:
– Cost effective
– Retain existing surface and architectural details
– Time efficient
– Cleaner on work sites
– Less waste
– Tested to Australian Standards
Passive Fire & Paint Services
With many councils across Melbourne issuing fire safety orders to bring certain buildings up to code, fire-rated paint technology is a quick and cost-effective solution for both interior and exterior surfaces that preserves a building’s historic structure while avoiding the need for expensive and destructive renovations.
Fire Ratings
Local councils and other governmental bodies have also realised this and have begun to take action by enforcing higher fire-ratings on all publicly-used commercial and privately-owned buildings in their domain including new, existing and heritage structures.
Safety Orders
Councils issue fire safety orders on buildings that they deem to have the most inadequate fire protection between the ceilings, floors and walls that separate the occupancies of multi-unit buildings including nursing homes, apartment buildings and accommodation providers.
Traditional Fixes
The traditional fixes to these fire code hazards include replacing ceilings with fire-rated linings or installing extensive sprinkler systems: both of which are time-consuming and costly renovation options.
Fire Retardent Paint
CAP 508 is a marketing-leading intumescent (fire-retardant) paint that has been successfully used for years to bring buildings into compliance with new council fire safety orders and regulations.
The only fire-rated paint system that achieves a rating of 60 and 90 minutes of fire separation on existing ceiling substrates, the CAP 508 intumescent paint expands in a fire to form a 50mm thick char layer that insulates and protects the surfaces underneath.
This superior fire retardant spray can only be applied by qualified professional painters and is spray-coated to result in a high-quality texture and a smooth finish. This gives your project the option of being top-coated with a preferred colour or alternative finish.
Exterior Protection
For exterior surfaces, Bailey Paint Group is a qualified applicator of the fireshell form Exfire.
Exfire is proven, flexible exterior-rated intumescent paint technology which provides bushfire-resistant timber applications for the unique Australian Climate. All its products are low-VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds), water-based fire rated coatings.
