NOBURN PLUS

In most structures, the interior walls that cover the framing are the first line of defense against a fire weakening the structural integrity of a building. To aid in this defense, No-Burn® Plus was developed. No-Burn® Plus is an interior latex paint product that can be used a base primer or tinted and used as a finish cote. No-Burn® Plus is not a fire retardant paint, but rather an intumescent fire reactant. When introduced to heat, No-Burn® Plus foams up, providing a protective barrier that shields the underlying substrate from the heat and fire. This protective barrier swells, creating an intact cocoon that can withstand a tremendous amount of fire. Because No-Burn® Plus does not allow what it is applied to be readily used as a fuel source for the fire, No-Burn® Plus can actually reduce the production of deadly, toxic smoke by up to 80 percent! This is very important since most fire related deaths occur from smoke inhalation.

In new construction, No-Burn® Plus works very well as a primer coat, applied directly to new drywall or wood. No-Burn® Plus provides a solid, bright white surface for the application of finish coats. It accepts all colors and paint types very well, including flats, enamels, semi-gloss, gloss and others. In existing homes and businesses, No-Burn® Plus can be tinted and used as a finish cote for those that want to paint on the protection. No-Burn® Plus can also be used on the framing of a structure, giving the entire structure a Class A rating on all the structural components. Having a Class A rating gives the structure the best possible protection against fire, especially in areas where a high fire hazard exists, such as in urban/wildland interfaces.

No-Burn® Plus has passed some of the most rigorous standards for fire protection in the industry. No-Plus is tested and certified by Underwriters' Laboratories and Underwriters' Laboratories of Canada. It has also passed the ASTM E-84-97a, which is similar to UL-723, ANSI No. 2.5, NFPA 255 and UBC 42-1. No-Burn® Plus has also been evaluated by ICBO Evaluation Service, Inc. under ER-5852.

Best of all, No-Burn® Plus is applied just like any latex paint and can be used on wood, drywall, plastic; anywhere regular latex paint can used. It can be applied by an airless sprayer, roller or a brush.
