    Intumescent coatings are reactive fire-protection paints applied to the tray surface—often factory-applied to control thickness and quality. Under fire exposure, the coating expands to form an insulating char layer, slowing heat transfer. ALTIC 007 is a water-based, intumescent fire retardant coating designed for cables, cable trays, and penetrations, providing up to 4 hours of certified circuit integrity as per NTH Mumbai testing. Our products, ideal for contractors, painters, and new businesses, meet fire and building codes, ensuring safety against fire risks in construction projects. So, what exactly is fire retardant. Most EPC specifications narrow the choice to two mainstream solutions: fire wrap systems (encapsulation) and intumescent fire-resistant coatings (reactive coatings).

    Choose appropriate fire protection materials, such as fire-rated board, firestop packs, firestop mastic, or fire-resistant mineral wool. Firestop packs should be placed in an orderly sequence. Indoor: Painted steel or galvanized trays. Corrosive/High Humidity:. Scope: Firestopping for busway, cable trays, cables, and trunking passing through walls in enclosed electrical installations. Where cables pass through shafts, walls, slabs, or enter electrical panels or cabinets, openings shall be tightly sealed with firestopping materials in accordance with. Fire resistance is a key factor when selecting cable trays for areas where fire hazards are present. Electrical fires can spread rapidly through the cables within a tray system, which is why choosing the right material for your cable tray is paramount in reducing the risk. These systems prevent fire and smoke from spreading through open cable pathways, maintaining circuit integrity and code. Effective protection of cable systems around the world: our tried-and-tested FLAMMOTECT-A and DG-CR 0.
