At Alpha Fire Protection, we supply Thermoguard Asbestos Encapsulating Coating, a specialized smoke and flame retardant solution designed to securely seal rigid, sound asbestos within buildings. This coating is ideal for areas that are not subject to mechanical damage, concealed spaces, or locations that are difficult to access.

Thermoguard Asbestos Encapsulating Coating is also highly effective in sealing in any isolated asbestos fibers that may remain after primary asbestos removal has taken place. By encapsulating these fibers, the coating prevents them from being released into the atmosphere, significantly reducing the risk of exposure. The coating permanently bonds any residual asbestos fibers to the surface they are attached to or upon which they rest, ensuring long-term safety.

This product meets rigorous fire safety standards, achieving EN Class B s1 d0, Class 0, and Class 1 ratings, making it a reliable choice for both smoke and flame retardation as well as asbestos encapsulation.
