CAFCO®
300
CAFCO® 300 is a durable, wet mix spray-applied
fire resistive material (SFRM) designed to provide fire protection
to various floor and roof assemblies, steel beams, columns,
and joists in commercial construction projects.
CAFCO® 300 offers the best fire resistance performance
per unit thickness of any spray-applied fire resistive material.
This means less material is needed to achieve required fire
ratings. CAFCO 300 is also very clean and neat in appearance,
with a smooth texture and cost efficient application.
CAFCO® 300 is applied exclusively by CAFCO licensed
and trained contractors, and our technical staff works closely
with building team members to meet all your fire protection
needs.
CAFCO® 300 is also a thermal insulator. This
benefit is important in reducing heat loss, particularly when
the product is applied to the underside of a roof deck. The
R-value added by CAFCO® 300 may allow a reduction
in roof insulation.
