Fireproofing is a common word, but not many know its meaning or importance in our daily lives. Fireproofing also known as fire coating is a fire protection measure for buildings from the possible threat of a fire disaster. It is a process by which buildings are made more resistant to fire with the use of fireproofing steel. Fire resisting materials are given an additional coating over the building surfaces to make it safe from catching fire. Further, using a certified fire resistance material will also make the buildings secure a fire-resistance rating.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Press release - Tuesday, 14th January 2014: It is not possible to save everything from fire. However, the damage can be reduced and minimized with the help of fire coating. Fireproofing increases the fire resistance capacity of buildings thereby giving more time for its inmates to evacuate and escape in case of fire emergencies. The loss of property is also reduced since the exterior prevents the fire from catching up within the interiors quickly. The usual way of fire coating is to add fireproofing steel to the building materials in order to make it fire resistant. Depending on the quality of materials used the fire resistance of the building is also improved. It is not possible to make any material immune from fire, since fire is all consumable, however, the damage can be reduced to a certain extent with safety measures like cable coating, fire coating, fireproofing, etc. using fireproofing steel.
Fireproofing is widely used in industries and factories where the risk of fire and its damage is ever present than in domestic environments. The high degree of heating and casting processes make building and equipments present in a factory to be more prone to catching fire, and hence, the precaution of fire coating using fireproofing steel. Cable coating will prevent the spreading fire in case of any short circuits or electrically mishaps. This probably the greatest advantage, since electrical fire is the most difficult type of fire accident to control and can cause huge losses within a very short period of time. There are various methods of fire proofing which includes using of fireproofing steel to spraying of fire resistant on the surfaces most prone to fire damages. The most widely used fireproofing materials in industries are Gypsum sprays, cement plasters and fibre Plasters which are very resistant to fire and immune the buildings to a certain extent if not completely. Generally, newly built buildings have inbuilt fire protection systems which are efficient to prevent to onslaught fire and also to trigger alarms in case of any accidents.
About FIRE SECURITY SYSTEMS
Fireproofing is the best way of protecting a building like school, offices, houses or even factories from fire accidents. It uses Fireproofing Steel, Cable Coating and Fire Coating to protect the building interiors from fire damages. Although fireproofing saves much damage it does not assure complete immunity from fire accidents.
