Construction

 

 

THERMOCYL™ provides protection for construction substrates, including metal, concrete, wood, plaster and fiberboard.

 

THERMOCYL™ also offers architects, specifiers, engineers and builders an array of flexible and cost-efficient solutions:

 

  • Excellent thermal barrier even at low coating thicknesses
  • Fast curing solutions and shortened curing time for off-site coating
  • No intumescing, creating more design flexibility
  • Better scratch resistance when handling
  • No use of solvents or water
  • Very low smoke density and toxicity

 

THERMOCYL™ passes all standard tests for fire protection in the two main standard classifications: “Reaction-to-Fire” and “Fire Resistance”.

 

The Reaction-to-Fire class specifies the tests for measuring the contribution of the material to a fire, whereas the Fire Resistance Class gives a measure of how long a material can maintain its functions in an unstoppable, fully developed fire.

 

The European Standard EN 13501 governs these classifications:

 

  • Part 1: Reaction-to-Fire except for flooring
  • Part 2: Fire Resistance (excluding service installations)
  • Part 3: Fire Resistance for service installations (excluding ventilation)
  • Part 4: Fire Resistance for ventilation systems
  • Part 5: Reaction-to-Fire for roofing

 

For oil rigs, THERMOCYL™ coatings pass the NORSOK standards, and meet ISO EN13501 requirements.
