Fire retardant paint systems

Do you need advice about fire-retardant Rf paint systems? Or do you prefer an expert and a follow up of your project from start to finish? Various interventions are possible when you collaborate with Vinçotte, and you will have full discretion to decide.

This comprises a series of possible interventions that range from expert advice in the selection of a system for treating the base surface, to the final inspection after applying the paint. Our expertise also extends to an inspection of the test certificates and the calculation of the layer thickness of the paint that must be applied depending on the steel profile to be protected.

If the work is carried out correctly, Vinçotte issues a certificate. This document confirms that the work has been carried out in accordance with the requirements and the required Rf value.
