Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat – Fire-Safe Decorative Finish

Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat is a specialised protective coating designed to reduce fire hazards caused by combustible materials such as wood, paint and other building substrates. When exposed to fire, it releases a flame-extinguishing gas, helping to slow flame spread and reduce smoke generation.

This durable decorative topcoat can be applied directly to bare or previously painted non-combustible surfaces where an intumescent basecoat is not required. It is ideal for maintenance and redecoration projects, offering both aesthetic enhancement and added fire safety performance.

Key Features:

• Provides flame-retardant protection to reduce fire risk
• Releases a flame-suppressing gas on contact with fire
• Can be applied directly to bare or previously painted non-combustible surfaces
• Suitable for maintenance and refurbishment use
• Enhances surface durability while maintaining a clean, decorative finish
• Ideal where Thermoguard basecoat upgrading is not needed
