Applications
Used on steel, timber, and other structural substrates in buildings, industrial plants, and facilities where passive fire protection is required.

Applicable to power plants, chemical plants, commercial buildings, and marine and offshore structures requiring fire containment.
Frequently asked questions
How does an intumescent coating work?
When exposed to heat from a fire, the intumescent coating expands and forms a thick insulating char layer. This char acts as a barrier that slows heat transfer to the substrate, extending the time before structural failure occurs.
What is the difference between WIFR and a standard fire-retardant paint?
WIFR is an intumescent coating that physically expands to provide passive fire protection, whereas standard fire-retardant paints primarily reduce surface flame spread without the same degree of structural heat shielding.
Can WIFR be applied to structural steel?
Intumescent coatings in the C-Coat range are formulated for use on structural elements including steel in high fire-rating settings, which is their primary application category.
