  • Fire-retardant paint for Vietnamese cable trays

    Fire-retardant paint for Vietnamese cable trays

    Intumescent coatings are reactive fire-protection paints applied to the tray surface—often factory-applied to control thickness and quality. Under fire exposure, the coating expands to form an insulating char layer, slowing heat transfer. ALTIC 007 is a water-based, intumescent fire retardant coating designed for cables, cable trays, and penetrations, providing up to 4 hours of certified circuit integrity as per NTH Mumbai testing. The product. Coatings for cable fire protection Cable penetrations seals / fire stopping for cables Pipe penetration seals / fire stopping for pipes Mixed penetrations seals / multi-transit fire stops For requests regarding technical documents or test and approval certificates, please use downloads or contact:.
