Fire protection
fire-retardant solutions
The requirements for fire protection increases in areas such as transport and construction. In order to meet these requirements, we specifically examine the available bandwidth of all materials of fibers and matrix systems, inorganic materials such as silicates and their combination under various processing technologies.
Possible solutions include:
- Addition of flame-retardant substances
- Function integration through separating layers
- non-combustible matrix systems
Over the years, we have built up expertise to serve our clients taking into account other factors such as: lightweight construction, dimensional stability, mechanical resilience and cost-effectiveness to offer suitable products for different sectors:
- shipbuilding
- rail vehicle
- construction industry
new development for marine applications
Example of the highest fire protection requirements for a lightweight structure-optimised structural component:
Matrix: phenolic
Core: Fiber Reinforced (Saerfoam)
Fibre: quadraxial fibre glass
Coating: extremely intumescent
Thickness: 19 mm
Weight: 5.2 kg/m2
