Wainscot is an authorised applicator of the Xerofire Intumescent Coating System, which provides Class 1S passive fire protection on wood.
If there is a fire in the building, the coating acts as a barrier between the fire and the wood so that it is slow to burn. This allows more time for discovery and evacuation before the burning wood causes smoke and flames that might obstruct evacuation.
The coating process involves the application of several products to create a clear film on the wood that looks very similar to a normal polyurethane coating. The application of the layers of film is a precise sequence that is rigorously followed.
Xerofire Intumescent Coating is approved to NA Fire Standard Class 1S. The wood can be coloured before the clear coat is applied.
The whole application process takes a week from start to finish before the wood can be packed and ready to be sent for installation.
Adrian and the team at Wainscot have worked with me on many beautiful projects. Our clients have appreciated the expert input, to the colours and textures of the ceilings and the feature walls that we have created. I recommend the Wainscot team for your next project.

Wainscot NZ Ltd were kind enough to donate the cut, CNC and delivery of plywood lockers in kitset form to Clubhouse Rescues grass roots community television series that will go to air in February 2023. Without their help Hibiscus Coast Football Club, and the clubs that they were involved in, would not have had brand new changing rooms completed. We are grateful for their generosity and support of this community project.”

Wainscot does not install the Xerofire intumescent coated wood, rather it is coated and sent to the qualified builder to install.
