Cementitious fire proofing is a cement-based material sprayed onto structural steel and concrete. It forms a thicker, more durable layer that insulates the steel from heat in a fire.
Where cementitious fire proofing is used in Dubai
It suits steel that will be hidden or finished later, such as plant rooms, car parks, warehouses and industrial buildings. The area around the work needs protecting during spraying, and the surface must be suitable.
Cementitious or intumescent?
Intumescent paint is thin, smooth and can be coloured, so it suits exposed steel. Cementitious fire proofing is thicker with a rough spray texture.
