Fire protection refers to measures undertaken for preventing the outbreak and spread of fire to save lives and properties of individuals. It comprises safe operations, safety planning practices and drills, providing education on fire risks and safety, conducting research and investigations, and training and testing of mitigating systems. It helps secure business processes and valuable goods while retaining access to protected areas. At present, there is a rise in the demand for intumescent paints or coatings in buildings and other structures to insulate surfaces from thermal attacks.

Fire Protection Materials Market Trends:
The growing concerns of human and property loss among individuals due to fire accidents, along with the expanding construction industry across the globe, represent one of the key factors driving the market. Moreover, governments of several countries are implementing stringent regulations to promote the use of fire protection materials in residential and non-residential buildings. This, coupled with the increasing utilization of these materials in the oil and gas industry due to the high risk involved in upstream activities, is propelling the growth of the market. In addition, key market players are extensively investing in research and development (R&D) activities to produce improved fire protection materials that can withstand fire for a longer duration and produce less smoke while burning. Besides this, the increasing utilization of safety codes in buildings for occupants and users around the world is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. Apart from this, the growing employment of fire protection materials in passenger and heavy-duty vehicles for ensuring safe evacuation time for passengers is positively influencing the market. Additionally, rising applications of fire protection materials in mining vehicles to suppress fire by enhancing firefighting operation is bolstering the market growth.
