Intumescent Paint Contractors Mansfield | Steel Fire Protection Experts – Fire Fort
Operating across Nottinghamshire, Fire Fort are leading intumescent paint contractors in Mansfield, trusted by developers, contractors, and building owners for certified fire protection. From large-scale commercial projects near Mansfield town centre and the Ransom Wood Business Park to heritage refurbishments in Market Place, our team delivers fully compliant intumescent paint applications that protect structural steelwork in line with UK fire regulations.
Intumescent paint application is a proven passive fire protection method for steel structures. Once applied, the coating expands in the event of fire, forming an insulating layer that slows down heat transfer and prevents steel from reaching its failure temperature. Depending on design requirements, Fire Fort’s systems provide 30, 60, 90, or 120 minutes of fire resistance.
We apply intumescent coatings for a variety of Mansfield projects, including:
- ✅ Steel columns in multi-storey residential apartments and student housing
- ✅ Structural steel beams in shopping centres, supermarkets, and retail parks
- ✅ Fire-rated steel decking and floor systems in warehouses and distribution centres
- ✅ Data centres, labs, and technology hubs requiring high-spec fire protection
- ✅ Hospitals, schools, universities, and public-sector buildings
- ✅ Office developments, factories, and industrial units across Mansfield
Our Mansfield intumescent paint applicators have worked on projects ranging from town centre redevelopments to industrial units in Sutton-in-Ashfield, Kirkby-in-Ashfield, and Shirebrook. Every job is completed with accurate DFT (dry film thickness) checks, manufacturer-approved systems, and full Building Control certification.

What Our Clients Say
“We just had Keegan from Fire Fort for 4 days painting the exposed steel beams in our garage with intumescent paint. Despite having to work around our storage shelves and boxes and in some pretty tight spaces, as well as deal with 3 very wet days, he was extremely thorough and professional, discussing issues with us before he took any action. He also took time to explain how the paint worked, number of layers needed. Keegan was extremely tidy, covering all our personal belongings and cleaning any over-spray off exposed surfaces diligently (despite it only being a garage). We are very pleased with the outcome and would highly recommend using Fire Fort.”
