Fire retardant paints have enormous opportunity to grow and partially replace the traditional paints market. The main driver of fire resistant paints market is the safety concerns of the people without compromising on the paint quality. Fire resistant paints are extensively used in industrial buildings which house hundreds of people at any given time. Fire resistant paints are applied in walls, wooden surfaces and other materials and surfaces as per requirement. Fire resistant paint when properly coated bulges up to form a solid foam like appearance, when the temperature increases extraordinarily due to flames. The foam thus formed prevents the fire or the flame to intrude the solid foam surface and affect the surface which is coated with fire resistant paint.
