Product Overview
EXPANDING EPOXY
MATERIAL, INSIDE
AND OUTSIDE
Removable fire insulation epoxy boxes are entirely
covered with an expanding epoxy coating. In case
of fire, the epoxy mass expands, creating a tight
barrier between the fire area and the protected
object. Depending on the customers requirements,
the boxes can be disassembled into two or more
components, which are fastened with adjustable
eccentric locks. Easy mounting and dismounting
allows for convenient inspection, maintenance, and
cleaning. Boxes are custom-made and individually
marked to ensure a perfect fit and easier
maintenance.
