Firecare System
Firecare is a line of advanced resins with self-extinguishing properties produced without halogens, substances which may emit toxic gases during combustion. These materials are used in applications such as electrical wiring, public transport vehicles and claddings, ensuring fire safety without harmful effects on the environment or human health.
Self-Extinguishing Resins and Gelcoats
Firecare self-extinguishing resins and gelcoats provide excellent flame-retardant performance and impeccable appearance for applications in various sectors, including railways, construction and the marine sector, in compliance with strict international regulations on fire safety. These products are designed to resist fire, reducing the spread of flames and the emission of toxic fumes.
Gelcoats can be applied by spray or brush and resins by lamination or RTM (Resin Transfer Moulding). In the railway and construction sectors, these materials offer reliable protection against accidental fires. In the marine sector, they help to improve craft’s safety by reducing the risks of fire and the relative damage.

Application Systems
In the Firecare System, a gelcoat is applied first in order to protect and colour the final article, followed by a resin that combines with the reinforcing material to provide its structure. The choice of these two components depends on the technical, appearance and performance qualities required, so customers are advised to contact the Technogel Technical Service for the technical information needed to create an efficient, high-performance production system.
