Graphite Based

We produce graphite based intumescent products. With a low starting expansion temperature.

A basic, but very well performing tape. Expansion temperature starting from 200°C.

A high-performance intumescent tape, with a starting expansion temperature from 180°C.

A newly developed high-performance tape, with a starting expansion from 150°C.

Graphite based intumescent product for the challenging tasks, expands to multiple times its original volume and a starting expansion from 180°C.

Especially developed for applications, where high expansion volume and pressure in combination with the stable char are required.

A newly developed graphite based intumescent gasket. It can seal the corresponding joint against air transfer and humidity under normal conditions.

Fitherm GM is a good solution in areas where ventilation is needed, like facades and roofs, to prevent fire from spreading.

Graphite based intumescent sheet with excellent properties. Expansion starting at a relatively low temperature around 150°C.

A graphite based flexible intumescent sheet especially developed for cable bandage against fire in electric installations.

A sealant based on a polymer dispersion in water and expandable graphite. In case of fire it expands up to 25-folds its original volume.
