Benefits of cast epoxy intumescents for circular hollow sections
Compared to the other forms of passive fire protection, the properties of cast epoxy intumescent—and Interactive Columns in particular—provide the following benefits:
* the appearance is superb—with most decorative effects possible
* the system offers up to a 3 hour fire protection period
* it is more secure (i.e. it is stuck directly and evenly to the structure)
* minor damage is easily, and cheaply, repaired (there is never the need to
replace a whole section)
* it is very difficult to tarnish or seriously damage
* there is minimal risk of breaching the fire protection integrity of the system
* there are no unsightly design joints—and no screw fixing that can be
tampered with
* it is a superior product that allows freedom of expression and prevents any
compromising of the original design concept
* it is safer to install than thin-film intumescent spraying
