Intumescent coatings are estimated to be the fastest-growing type in the fireproofing materials market for the forecast period

Intumescent coatings are broadly divided into thin film and thick film coatings. Thin film intumescent coatings are either solvent-based or water-based and consist of three components a primer, a base coat, and a sealer coat. These coatings are majorly used to provide fire resistance in buildings. Thick film intumescent coatings are usually epoxy-based and typically have higher dry film thickness than thin film. Thin film intumescent coatings are preferred for these buildings and for the better protection from cellulosic fires. Whereas, thick film intumescent coatings are majorly used in the industrial end-use segment for hydrocarbon fires coatings. These are majorly used for external steel in high-rise buildings and structures exposed to marine environments. These properties are expected to drive the intumescent coatings during the forecast period.
