What is the passive fire protection (PFP) system?
PFP (PFP – Passive Fire Protection) is an important passive fireproof coating system built into the structures. The PFP system is used to low or prevent the spread of fire to power cables and other equipment. A fireproof panel with mineral wool material is the outstanding material used for fire-safety constructions.

The uses of passive fire protection systems:
1. Limit the spread of fire and smoke by blocking all the compartments;
2. Determine emergency exits for vehicles;
3. Determine the steadiness of the protected building.
VIVABLAST offers passive fire protection systems that optimize initial consultation and project management and application management for industrial sectors (Petroleum, petrochemical, and power plants). Projects can be undertaken right at the customer’s factory or at VIVABLAST’s, from the import of the material to installation.

We are specialist applicators of intumescent coatings such as Chartek, Interchar, Firetex, Nullifire, and Pitt Char.
Benefits of passive fireproofing materials: fireproof paint, mineral wool fireproof wood panel, ceramic plaster,…
Selecting passive fireproofing materials for buildings that require safety for life is a top priority. The purpose of using these materials is to maintain the structural integrity of the building during the fire and prevent its spread and consequences.
Asset protection and continuity of operations are the second requirements. Some specific industries such as nuclear facilities and maritime set higher standards since they have to ensure the evacuation and prevent the scatter of nuclear radiation into the environment.
