No-Burn
NO-BURN® PLUS - In most structures, the interior walls that cover the framing are the first line of defense against a fire weakening the structural integrity of a building. To aid in this defense, NO-BURN® PLUS was developed. NO-BURN® PLUS is an interior latex paint product that can be used as a base primer or tinted to match the finish coat.
NO-BURN® PLUS is not a fire retardant paint, but rather an
intumescent fire reactant that when introduced to heat or flame,
foams up, providing a protective char barrier that shields the
underlying materials from heat and fire. This protective barrier
"swells," creating an intact "cocoon" that
can withstand a tremendous amount of heat and fire.
Because
NO-BURN® PLUS does not allow the treated surfaces to be readily
used as a fuel source for the fire, it can actually reduce the
production of deadly toxic smoke by up to 80 percent.
In new construction, NO-BURN® PLUS works very well as a primer coat, applied directly to new drywall or wood. NO-BURN® PLUS provides a solid, bright white surface for the application of finish coats. It accepts all colors and paint types very well, including flats, enamels, semi-gloss, gloss and others. In existing homes and businesses, NO-BURN® PLUS can be tinted and used as a finish coat for those who want to paint on the protection.
NO-BURN® PLUS can also be used on the framing of a structure,
giving the entire structure a Class A rating on all the structural
components. Having a Class A rating gives the structure the
best possible protection against fire, especially in areas where
a high fire hazard exists such as urban areas with homes in
close proximity, or in woodland areas.
