However, when DC315 is applied to SPF, it forms a protective barrier that prevents the foam from catching fire and reduces the spread of flames. vDC315 is specifically designed to be used in commercial and industrial settings, where fire safety regulations and building codes are more stringent. It is a water-based intumescent coating that can be easily applied using airless spray equipment, brush or roller. The coating dries quickly and can be painted over once it has cured. It is important to note that DC315 is not a standalone fire protection solution and should be used in combination with other fire safety measures, such as smoke alarms and sprinkler systems.

Fireproofing for Commercial Spray Foam Insulation
Fireproofing of commercial insulation is an important safety measure that helps to protect buildings and their occupants in case of fire. Commercial insulation material that are commonly used for thermal and acoustic insulation such as fiberglass, cellulose, or foam can be treated with fire-resistant coatings or barriers to increase their fire resistance.
The most common methods of fireproofing commercial insulation include:
1. Fire-resistant coatings: These coatings are typically applied over the insulation material to create a fire-resistant barrier. Coatings can be either intumescent or cementitious, and their effectiveness depends on the thickness of the coating in the type of insulation material.
2. Fire-rated barriers: These are materials that are installed over the insulation material to provide and additional layer of fire resistance. common fire-rated barriers include gypsum board, mineral wool, and other noncombustible materials.
3. Fire proofing sprays: These are sprays that are applied directly to the insulation material to increase its fire resistance. These sprays are made from a variety of materials including dentitions, intumescent, or mineral wool fibers.
It is important to note that fireproofing of commercial spray foam insulation does not make the insulation material completely fireproof, but rather increases its ability to resist fire and slows down its spread. Its important to consult San Jose Spray Foam Insulation as your go to fireproofing contractor to determine the best fireproofing method for your commercial insulation.
