PRODUCT INTRODUCTION

Intumescent coatings react under the influence of great heat release like fire. Because of the heat the coating expands many times the original layer thickness producing an insulating carbon char. The carbon char will protect the steel from the effects of fire.

In addition to the fire resistant function, HCA intumescent coatings will provide a smooth, aesthetic satisfying finish, which is durable and easy to maintain. The steel is fully protected against fire, with a system that has all the decorative qualities of a conventional paint.

The thin intumescent coating layer enables architects and designers to use the steel framework as an integral part of the overall design like in new airports, shopping malls, hotels and sport stadiums. This is one of the main reasons why intumescent coatings are increasingly preferred over other types of passive fire protection such as mineral sprays and boards.

HCA WL 90 SB EXTERIOR is an intumescent coating for indoor and outdoor application. It is developed for on-site and off-site application. HCA WL 90 SB can be exposed for 9 months in outdoor situations without a topcoat.
