Fire­proof­ing Patching

Indus­tri­al fire­proof­ing is super durable, but not invin­ci­ble. Fire­proof­ing dam­age hap­pens all the time as a result of new builds and ren­o­va­tions since fire­proof coat­ing has to be removed to com­plete essen­tial main­te­nance. Dai­ly wear and tear can also degrade fire­proof­ing over time. 

Reg­u­lar facil­i­ty main­te­nance, includ­ing indus­tri­al clean­ing and sur­face prepa­ra­tion, is essen­tial to ensure your fire­proof­ing is always up-to-date. Remov­ing dam­aged or com­pro­mised coat­ings com­plete­ly so they can be reap­plied seam­less­ly will improve their per­for­mance and its aes­thet­ic appeal.

If your indus­tri­al or com­mer­cial fire­proof­ing coat­ing dam­age has left areas of your facil­i­ty or equip­ment uncov­ered or unpro­tect­ed, or if coat­ings have cracked, don’t leave your com­mer­cial or indus­tri­al facil­i­ty at risk. 

Kaloutas will deter­mine the prop­er mate­r­i­al and method for patch­ing to deliv­er a result that allows con­struc­tion, main­te­nance, or stan­dard oper­a­tions to con­tin­ue with­out delay, keep­ing you com­pli­ant with fire codes.

Code and Inspec­tion Compliance

To main­tain required fire resis­tance rat­ings, com­mer­cial and indus­tri­al build­ing code com­pli­ance now requires the annu­al inspec­tion and repair of all exposed sprayed fire­proof­ing in build­ings. To bring your facil­i­ty up to code and achieve required fire resis­tance rat­ings, patch­ing com­pounds must be test­ed and applied cor­rect­ly and reg­u­lar­ly as part of facil­i­ty maintenance. 

Patch­ing with unap­proved or incor­rect coat­ings cre­ates lia­bil­i­ty, safe­ty risks, and com­pli­ance issues. Your indus­tri­al paint­ing and main­te­nance ven­dor should be aware of the spe­cif­ic fire­proof coat­ings and intu­mes­cent paint used in your facil­i­ty and must be able to cus­tomize them and test them as need­ed to help you stay safe and operational. 

Effec­tive Indus­tri­al and Com­mer­cial Fire­proof Patching

Kaloutas is expe­ri­enced in apply­ing cus­tomized intu­mes­cent fire­proof­ing and fire­proof patch­ing in numer­ous indus­tri­al and com­mer­cial facilities.

For fire­proof coat­ings, we use fiber­glass-based, spray-applied ther­mal-acousti­cal insu­la­tion com­pat­i­ble with most fire­proof­ing prod­ucts, so future patch­ing is less of a has­sle. Our ther­mal-acousti­cal prod­ucts are designed to deliv­er required insu­la­tion R‑values and acousti­cal noise reduc­tion in tan­dem with fire-resis­tance mate­ri­als. The final result is effec­tive, code-com­pli­ant, and aes­thet­i­cal­ly pleasing. 

We have expe­ri­ence apply­ing fire­proof patch­ing to a vari­ety of sur­faces, includ­ing struc­tur­al steel. 

We know that fire­proof patch­ing should:

• Match exist­ing coat­ing type and thickness

• Meet com­pli­ance stan­dards so you pass build­ing inspec­tion and keep your peo­ple, equip­ment, prod­uct, and facil­i­ty safe

• Get done on your sched­ule, and accord­ing to your safe­ty pro­to­col and secu­ri­ty demands

Our teams can get it done on your sched­ule with­out stop­ping work or inter­rupt­ing pro­duc­tiv­i­ty. To work with a com­pa­ny that takes safe­ty seri­ous­ly at every lev­el, call Kaloutas.
