At Vesta Sol, we provide specialist intumescent steel painting services designed to protect structural steelwork in the event of a fire. Our systems help maintain the load-bearing capacity of steel, giving critical time for safe evacuation and emergency response.

What is Intumescent Paint?

Intumescent coatings are a form of passive fire protection. When exposed to high temperatures, the coating expands to form a thick, insulating char that protects the steel beneath from heat.
