Fireproofing

Quantum Industrial Solutions has the solutions you need when you want to create a safe, fire-resistant residential, commercial, or industrial space.
What Is Fireproofing?
Fireproofing is the use of non-combustible, heat resistant materials and the application of specially formulated non-flammable coatings that prevent “structural collapse and allow safe egress of occupants in case of fire” (Encyclopedia Britannica).
While many construction materials are non-flammable by nature – steel, concrete, and stone, other materials are. Applying fire-retardant coatings called spray-applied fire-resistive materials (or SFRM) to these surfaces prevents them from succumbing to fire.
Commercial, industrial, and residential properties require varying levels of fireproofing to meet the Canadian Code, depending on their purpose. Quantum stays current with all local and federal building and safety codes. Our fireproofing specialists help you determine what fireproofing you require and can provide the solutions you need

Whenever possible, our Hazmat Containment Specialists remove flammable materials, like older insulation, from your home or business and replace them with non-combustible or fire-retardant materials. When removal is not possible or economically viable, our fireproofing technicians apply spray-applied fire-resistive materials to the surfaces. Quantum’s fire-resistant coatings protect the structure in case of fire, making them heat-resistant, fire-retardant, and non-combustible.
Fireproof coatings are a fast, cost-effective solution. They can be applied to any surface and readily adhere to other protective linings, insulation, or coatings.
