IRVINE, CA – March 12, 2015 – International Fireproof Technology Inc. (IFTI) and Demilec Inc., announced that DC315 spray-applied, fire protective coating, has successfully passed three (3) NFPA 286 Room Corner Burn test as an alternative thermal barrier solution, and one NFPA 286 Appendix X test for ignition barrier over Demilec's spray polyurethane foams. The certified testing was ran and passed at QAI an IAS Accredited testing facility in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
“We are very excited to add Demilec to the IFTI – DC315 coating family," stated Gary Wolfe, Executive Vice President of IFTI."IFTI leads the industry with its catalog of over 135 full scale certified tests. Any coating company can tell you their coating will work on the foam brand you spray; it is another thing to prove it with testing. If you are not using DC315 you may not be complying with the codes!"
