Fire Protection

This division, established in 1995, was created for the purpose of providing protection to steel structured buildings with respect to the required fire rating imposed by the Civil Defense Department. The main protective coating materials used by Mercury are the following:


Cementitious Products

Mercury uses sophisticated machinery and a welltrained workforce for the application of Asbestos fiber and fiber migration free non-carcinogenic fireproofing material, a well-recognized product used widely throughout the world including GCC countries. This material is regularly used in areas that are concealed in the final phases of construction.




Intumescent Coating

The intumescent fireproofing coating materials are mainly used for steel structured projects requiring a decorative finish. The procedure is performed by using an airless spray machine. Mercury has successfully completed many major projects using this material including the National Bank of Bahrain headquarters and the Gulf Air Safety and Survival Hanger.
