Collection: Fire Protection

Fire protection you apply like paint — three products, three different jobs.

🔥 FRED — the Class A fire paint for spray foam and timber. FRED is our Class A2-s1,d0 fire retardant intumescent coating, the thermal barrier that lets exposed spray foam insulation and timber meet fire regulations. If building control has flagged exposed foam in an attic, garage ceiling, plant room or workshop — or you need a fire rated paint for timber — FRED goes on by spray or roller and forms an intumescent thermal barrier that resists flame spread at the highest reaction-to-fire class a coating can achieve.

🛡️ Passive Purple X — the fire rated airtight membrane. Airtightness and fire performance in one liquid-applied membrane, fire rated to ASTM E84 Class A (US) and EN fire Class B (Europe) — the airtight line for new builds, high-rise and re-cladding projects where the vapor control layer itself must carry a fire classification.

🏢 Passive Purple External — the fire rated façade membrane. A weather-resistive barrier fire rated to ASTM E84 Class A (US) and EN fire Class B (Europe) that waterproofs and airtights the façade in one coat — sprayed, rolled or brushed onto sheathing and masonry, keeping weather out and air where it belongs.

Each product does a different job: FRED protects surfaces from fire; Passive Purple X and External are airtight membranes that also carry US and European fire ratings. Not sure which your project needs? Read the fire protection solutions guide or ask our technical team.
