Hydrocarbon Fireproofing

Hydrocarbon fire protection is a strategy to minimize the damage to industrial components in case of hydrocarbon pool fire or jet fire. Active fire protection strategies such as foam sprays are used to extinguish the fire. We offer the most effective and economical hydrocarbon fire protection services for the oil and gas industries and high-rise buildings. 

Active hydrocarbon fire protection is supplementary to passive methods. These strategies include the use of coolants, sprays, and foams that cool down overheated equipment and extinguish fires. 

We use lightweight and durable Hydrocarbon approved fire stop materials  material that provide the required fire protection by meeting all major fire protection specifications. It is one of the most popularly used materials in Petrochemical and other heavy industrial facilities. Its thermal performance and durability have made it a leading fire protection material.
