Challenges:
Finding a coating solution that could withstand the harsh environmental factors present in culverts while still performing effectively in fire situations to protect combustible surfaces was a demanding requirement for any system.
Solution:
Already proven in other industries as the go-to for long-term, exterior-grade, ductile high-insulation ignition barrier intumescent coating, Temprotex was subjected to extensive real-world scenario laboratory and field tests by Interflow and Exfire. These tests were conducted to ensure the system would meet the unique performance requirements for these applications.
Outcome:
An easy-to-apply, robust fire protection coating system can now be applied to GRP, PVC, HDPE, and other composite culvert structures and strengthening systems. This system provides a high-insulation ignition and flame spread barrier, allowing Interflow to offer a risk reduction solution to complement its already impressive range of culvert and pipe solutions.

Temprotex® F1ER
Temprotex® F1ER is an high performance water based, fast drying, sprayable coating for use on combustible pipeline and culvert materials car and truck bodies, plastic/composite panels, engine parts, flexible lines and hoses, HDEP, GRP, fibreglass, carbon fibre and almost any other composite surface. Heat insulating, vibration resistant, ductile, waterproof, nonflammable coating. Creates an ignition barrier on thermosets and other flammable, ductile items as well as reducing core temperatures.
