Fire protection coating for manufacturing facilities

PPG announced the launch of PPG STEELGUARD 951 epoxy intumescent fire protection coating in the Americas. This innovative product is designed for advanced manufacturing facilities, including semiconductor plants, electric vehicle battery facilities, data centers and other commercial infrastructure. After a successful launch in Europe and the Middle East, PPG Steelguard 951 coating is now available in North and Latin America.

PPG Steelguard 951 coating provides up to four hours of fire protection by expanding from a thin, lightweight film into a thick, insulating foam. This maintains structural integrity, allows more time for evacuation and minimizes damage to buildings and assets.

The coating delivers up to 3,500 microns of dry-film thickness in a single coat and cures rapidly, ready for handling the next day. PPG Steelguard 951 coating is ideal for modular construction projects optimized for off-site and field applications. PPG’s patented flexible epoxy technology ensures excellent durability and edge retention, reducing the risk of cracks during handling and transportation, and provides corrosion resistance up to ISO 12944 C5 without a topcoat.
