Intumescent Fireproofing & Protective Coatings
Specialist passive fire protection and protective coating systems applied to specification.
Overview
Fireproofing & Protective Coatings in Tauranga & the Bay of Plenty
Intumescent coatings expand under heat to insulate structural steel and hold its load capacity for a specified fire rating. Applied correctly, they are the difference between a compliant building and a problem at sign-off.
Bay Spec Painting applies intumescent fireproofing and protective coating systems on commercial and industrial projects across the Bay of Plenty, working to the manufacturer's specification and the project's fire design.
What the work involves
Specification review
Coating system, dry film thickness and required fire rating confirmed against the project's fire design documentation.
Steel preparation and priming
Surface preparation and compatible priming so the intumescent layer bonds and performs as designed.
Intumescent application
Applied to the specified film build, with wet and dry film thickness monitored through the process.
Sealing, topcoats and records
Sealer and decorative topcoats where specified, plus documentation of the applied system for the project record.
Our approach
Film thickness measured and recorded rather than estimated, because that is what the rating depends on.
Application sequenced with steel erection and following trades so the coating is not damaged after it goes on.
Supplier technical support engaged where a detail or a substrate needs confirming.
