In order to properly install fire batt panels, fire batt coating must be applied on both the front and back of each panel. This effective, mastic is sold in individual 5 litre pails which applied by spraying or painting on. During a fire, the batt coating becomes a fire-resistant ceramic. By combining Astrocoat mastic and fire batt panels, up to four hours of effective fire resistance is achieved. An ideal solution where the installation of cables or piping has left holes in walls or floors.
