Fire Protection Coatings
Achieve life-saving protection from fires, cryogenic spills, and corrosion with intumescent fire protective coatings
Steel is a widely used material for commercial and industrial construction, but despite its strength and versatility, the integrity of steel structures will be weakened by fires, cryogenic spills, or corrosion—which, in turn, compromises the integrity of assets and can pose a safety risk or even cause the structure to collapse. To reduce the risks and prevent damage, protect the steel substrate with a high-performance fire protection coating system.
At Sherwin-Williams, we are dedicated to mitigating threats, putting safety first, and protecting both lives and steel assets with our high-performance intumescent fire protective coating products. We offer tailored solutions for steel that effectively combat corrosion, reduce adverse impacts from fire and cryogenic spills.
If you are looking for fire protection coatings for steel that provide durable long-lasting protection, with a desirable finish, and to eliminate the need for multiple products, we have the solution for you. Our FIRETEX® intumescent fire protective coatings provide critical protection from fire, cryogenic spills, and corrosion for the design life of the asset.
From our cellulosic intumescent coatings to our hydrocarbon or cryogenic epoxy-based coating systems, we provide high-performance fire protection coatings that get the job done without sacrificing aesthetic appeal. Together, we can find a fire protection coating solution that supports the long-term success of your project.
