Fire Retardant Paint for Electrical Cables – Professional Cable Fire Protection Solution
The right fire safety option is the first step in protecting your electrical equipment. The enterprise-grade security provided by Henan Banggu's fire retardant paint for electrical cables includes a 90-minute fire resistance time, an FV-0 flame retardant grade, and a flame spread ratio of 25. Our coating is a great insulator that keeps electrical transmission while creating a thick carbonised barrier when exposed to fire. With a VOC content of as little as 120g/L for water-based recipes, building temperatures that are flexible (0–40°C), and a coating thickness of only 0.5–1 mm, this protection is light and cheap. With ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 certifications and more than 30 years of experience coating, we provide solid solutions for power lines, phone systems, and cable trays all over the world.
Why Choose Our Cable Fire Protection Coating?
Proven Fire Performance You Can Trust
Every second counts when there is a fire. When our goods are heated, they grow very quickly. It turns into a tough, carbonised layer of protection that stops fires and makes heat move more slowly. This stops short circuits in the cables and keeps the fire from spreading through your electrical system.
Your wires will be safer for longer. Power and lighting systems that work in emergencies keep working when you need them the most.
Safe, Green, and Export-Ready
Products that meet world standards are what you need. It doesn't smell bad, is safe, and doesn't contain any dangerous volatiles. It has ISO 14001 Environmental Management System Certification, which means it follows international rules about the environment.
It won't damage the insulation on the cables or hurt your team while they're applying it. It works great indoors and outdoors in household, business, and industrial settings.
Easy Application, Fast Results
There's no need for fancy tools. Like regular paint, you can brush, roll, or spray our covering on. It takes one to two hours for the surface to dry. It takes 24 hours to fully heal. After only 4 hours, you can cover it again.
Two to three coats are usually enough to get the thickness you need. Between 0.5 and 0.8 kg per square metre is covered. Easy to use, successful, and good value for money.

FAQ
Q1: What criteria do your cable fire retardant coating meet?
A: Our product fulfils GB 28374-2012 "Fire-Retardant Coating for Cables" standard. Official test results for fire safety inspections and international projects are available.
Q2: Does the coating influence cable insulation or performance?
A: Not at all. We use non-conductive, highly insulating coating. It doesn't affect cable insulation or conductivity after drying. Your systems are secure and functional.
Q3: How long does the fire protection last?
A: Our coating offers ≥90 minutes fire resistance. When heated, it foams and expands, creating a strong thermal barrier that retards flames, isolates oxygen, and suppresses smoke.
Q4: Can I apply this coating outside?
A: We create our coating for inside protected situations. For long-term performance, use it with weather-resistant topcoats, fire-resistant wraps, or fire-resistant cable trays for outdoor cables.
Q5: Does this product pass fire safety tests?
A: Yes. Our coating has test results and compliance certificates and meets national requirements. It passes fire safety assessments when used properly.
