Fire-Resistive Materials

Fire-resistive materials are substances used in construction to prevent the spread of fire and maintain structural integrity during a fire. They are designed to withstand high temperatures, slowing the transfer of heat and flames, which helps protect people and property. These materials include specialized concrete, fireproof boards, intumescent coatings, and mineral-based products. They are often used in walls, ceilings, and structural supports to ensure buildings remain safe for longer periods during fires, allowing more time for evacuation and firefighting efforts.
