Albi Clad TF Fireproof Coating
A smooth architectural finish for interior fire protection
Albi Clad TF (Thin Film)is a water-based intumescent material for interior structural steel.Unlike ordinary fireproofing,Albi Clad TF is applied at minimum thickness for a smooth, architectural finish. It represents a breakthrough in interior fire protection. Albi Clad TF is spray-applied and offers up to 3.5 hours fire protection. Architects and other specifiers can use Albi Clad TF as an attractive interior finish, but still conform to building codes and insurance requirements.
Aesthetic thin decorative finish
Albi Clad TF is applied in commercial buildings where architectural designs demand an aesthetic, thin, decorative finish. Albi Clad TF is ideal for interior steel columns beams tubes trusses and other exposed structural members.

Alibi Clad TF must be applied by qualified factory-trained applicators
Apply Albi Clad TF directly from the shipping container by means of standard or airless spray equipment.The fire endurance rating specification determines the thickness of the coating.
Alibi Clad TF must be applied by qualified factory-trained applicators in accordance with the manufacturer's printed instructions and in compliance with specific test requirements.
As a water-based compound, Albi Clad TF must be protected from freezing during shipping, storage, application and curing. Contact the manufacturer for specific application parameters.
