Passive Fire Protection Insulation Installation Contractor in Dubai UAE

In high-risk industrial environments, safety is not optional - it’s mandatory. Protek Contracting specializes in comprehensive Passive Fire Protection (PFP) contracting services in Dubai, UAE and Middle East, delivering superior fire-resistance systems that secure your infrastructure and save lives. Our services extend across all seven emirates-Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah, and Fujairah-and reach industrial zones, refineries, commercial establishments, and offshore platforms throughout the Middle East.

What is Passive Fire Protection?

Passive Fire Protection refers to building components or systems integrated into the structure that help contain fires or slow their spread. Unlike active fire protection (such as sprinklers), passive methods function without human intervention or mechanical activation.

Our passive fire protection contracting solutions include:

  • Fire-rated insulation
  • Fireproof coatings
  • Firestop systems
  • Vermiculite spray
  • Fire-resistant boards and wraps
  • Structural steel protection

These components are vital in petrochemical plants, power facilities, marine vessels, data centers, and oil & gas infrastructure in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and beyond.

Our Expertise in Passive Fire Protection Contracting

Protek Contracting has built a robust reputation as one of the most trusted passive fire protection contractors in the UAE, with a comprehensive portfolio of completed projects in Ras Al Khaimah, Ajman, Fujairah, and Umm Al Quwain. Our approach integrates:

  • International compliance (NFPA, UL, FM, BS)
  • Civil defense approval across all emirates
  • End-to-end project management
  • Certified applicators for all PFP systems

Whether in an offshore LNG terminal or a residential high-rise in Dubai, our systems are engineered to withstand extreme conditions and meet stringent inspection protocols.

Applications Across Sectors

1. Oil & Gas Industry

In refineries and petrochemical complexes in Abu Dhabi and Sharjah, PFP systems are crucial for protecting structural steel, pipe racks, and cable trays from intense hydrocarbon fires. Protek applies intumescent coatings, fire wraps, and barriers tested for these harsh environments.

2. Power & Utility Plants

Thermal power stations in Ajman, Fujairah, and Ras Al Khaimah require compartmentalization and fire-rated ductwork. We install fire-resistant boards and sealants that maintain structural integrity during high-temperature exposure.

3. Commercial and Residential Buildings

In growing emirates like Umm Al Quwain and Dubai, we provide PFP for commercial towers, data centers, and hotels. Firestop penetration seals, access panels, and fire-rated partitions are part of our core offering.

4. Marine and Offshore Facilities

Ships, FPSOs, and offshore rigs in the Middle East rely on fire-rated insulation and protective jacketing. Protek ensures full IMO and SOLAS compliance for passive fire protection systems.

Our Passive Fire Protection Services Include:

Intumescent Coating Application

We supply and apply intumescent coatings that expand under heat to form a carbonaceous layer, insulating the substrate. Ideal for structural steel, especially in high-rise and industrial buildings across Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

Vermiculite Cementitious Fire Spray

For cost-effective fireproofing in bulk applications, vermiculite spray provides excellent adhesion and coverage. It’s suitable for facilities in Sharjah and Ras Al Khaimah.

Fire-Resistant Boards and Panels

Promat®, Cafco®, and similar products installed in panel form, offering fire integrity of up to 240 minutes. Commonly used in commercial and utility projects across Ajman and Fujairah.

Firestop Sealing Systems

To protect penetrations and joints in walls or floors, we install certified sealants, wraps, collars, and mortars that prevent fire spread across compartments.

Cable Tray Fire Wraps

Fire-rated insulation wraps around tray systems provide critical delay during fires, protecting communication and power lines.

Fire-Rated Ductwork and Enclosures

Ducts transporting flammable gases or air need fire-rated jackets and access covers. This is common in HVAC and mechanical rooms across Umm Al Quwain and Dubai.

Materials & Technologies We Use

Protek sources fireproofing materials from global leaders, ensuring certification, traceability, and compatibility with client specifications:

  • Promat® Fire Protection Boards
  • CAFCO® Fireproofing Compounds
  • Nullifire® and Hilti® Firestop Sealants
