The manufacturers of the intumescent paint systems can offer certification after application.

We advise on this process when we send you a specification for the project.

You have not mentioned what the substrate is but if you can fill in the revelant questions below and send these to [email protected] we can assist you.

Steel

• Level of fire protection required (i.e. 30, 60, 90min, etc.)
  - Each steel section dimension (i.e. 254x146x37 UB)
  - Quantity and length of each section (or overall meterage for each section)
  - Orientation (horizontal or vertical)
  - Number of sides to be painted (all sides, 3 sides, 1 flange, etc.)
  - Structural Steel Design Code (i.e. EuroCode, BS5950, BS476; Part 21, etc.)
  - Building type (i.e. office, domestic, storage, etc.)
  - Environment (internal, external, car park, chemical exposure, etc.)
  - Application on site or in shop
  Alternatively you can just forward us drawings, fabrication/cutting lists and we'll extract the information from them but in that instance we'd need some guidance as to what to allow for i.e. all steels on first floor, etc.

Timber

Size of surface area to paint
- Timber thickness
- Level of Fire Protection required (Class 1, Class 0, 30min, 60min, etc.)
- Type of timber (i.e. pine, mdf, plywood, etc.)
- Type of Timber surface (i.e. T&G, feather edge / shiplap cladding, solid panels / sheets, etc.)
- Internal or external
- Use (i.e. floor, wall cladding, ceiling, etc.)
- Clear or coloured coating required?
- Bare or previously coated?
