The energy industry is one of the biggest users of fire-resistant paints and coatings. Fire-resistant coatings are required to protect workers and the safety and security of facilities in the energy supply chain. Many of these facilities work with oil, gas, and chemicals that can pose huge fire risks, so fire-resistant paint is crucial to ensure proper fire protection in energy facilities. Energy plants and other structures also face strict fire codes and safety rules involving fire protection.

You can utilize intumescent paints to help your business meet these safety needs. Intumescent paints provide passive fire protection for energy facilities by coating building materials and shielding them from flames during a fire event. Fire-resistant coatings are designed to activate when flames or high heat reaches them. The elevated heat causes the material to expand and form a char around the structural material. This protects the energy facility’s structural materials, providing stability and more time for building occupants to evacuate.

If you’re looking for a way to provide passive fire protection for your energy facility, consider using an interior intumescent paint from FireFree Inc.
