Fire resistant flooring refers to specialized flooring systems designed to resist ignition, minimize flame spread, and reduce smoke generation in the event of a fire. These systems meet stringent fire performance criteria, offering passive protection in facilities where fire risks are high.

Unlike regular industrial flooring, fire-resistant systems are built using flame-retardant resins, fillers, and coatingsthat comply with international safety standards like ASTM E648, BS 476, and EN 13501.

How Fire Resistant Flooring Works

• Delay ignition by reducing surface flammability

• Limit flame spread to contain fire in its origin area

• Suppress smoke and toxic emissions, giving occupants more time to evacuate

• Provide structural integrity even under intense heat

• This type of flooring acts as passive fire protection (PFP)—a crucial element in any fire safety plan, especially in high-risk environments.

Types of Fire Resistant Flooring Systems We Offer

Chemoxy Flooring offers a variety of fire-rated flooring systems tailored for different industries and fire risk zones:

1. Fire-Resistant Epoxy Flooring

Perfect for industrial and commercial areas where high load-bearing and fire safety are equally important. Our epoxy coatings are enhanced with flame-retardant additives.

2. PU (Polyurethane) Fire-Resistant Flooring

Ideal for food processing plants, cold storage units, and cleanrooms. PU systems combine thermal shock resistance with Class B or Class A fire ratings.

3. Vinyl Composite Fire-Rated Systems

Suitable for office-adjacent production zones and public spaces. These systems offer good fire resistance along with a range of aesthetic options.

4. Anti-Static Fire Retardant Flooring

Critical in areas handling flammable vapors or electronics. These systems control electrostatic discharge while resisting fire propagation.

5. Topcoat Sealers with Fire Ratings

For additional protection on existing floors, we offer fire-rated sealers and coatings that can be applied over compatible substrates.
