Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is intumescent paint and how does it work?
Intumescent paint is a specially formulated fire rated paint that expands when exposed to heat. This reaction forms a thick, insulating char layer that protects the underlying surface — usually steel or timber — from extreme temperatures, maintaining structural stability during a fire.
2. How long does intumescent paint last?
When applied and maintained correctly, intumescent coatings can last for decades. Longevity depends on factors such as exposure conditions, coating thickness, and regular inspections. Re-coating may be required if the surface is damaged or exposed to harsh environments.
3. Is intumescent paint suitable for steel?
Yes , intumescent paint for steel is one of the most effective forms of passive fire protection. It’s ideal for columns, beams, and other load-bearing elements in commercial and industrial structures, helping maintain structural integrity for up to 120 minutes in a fire.
4. How much does intumescent coating cost per m²?
The cost of intumescent coating varies depending on the required fire rating, coating type, and project size. As a general rule, custom specifications are needed to determine exact pricing — contact our Perth team for a detailed quote.
5. Do you provide certification and testing?
Absolutely. All our fireproof paint systems come with manufacturer certification and are tested to meet Australian Standards (AS/NZS) and NCC compliance. We also provide site inspection reports and fire rating documentation upon completion.
6. Can intumescent paint be painted over?
Yes, but only with approved topcoats compatible with the intumescent coating system. Using the wrong paint can affect fire performance, so always consult a certified applicator before repainting or maintenance work.
