We’ll restore your existing passive fire barriers with patching, overlays and replacement applications wherever needed. Allowing fireproofing decay jeopardizes occupant lives and violates crucial safety codes.
Our decade of practical know-how allows us to correctly install fire-rated materials to bolster defenses based on site-specific protection goals. We follow stringent manufacturer specs so treated components reliably perform their fire-response function when needed most.
These cementitious or fibrous fire resistant coatings in Denver insulate building skeletons, floors and walls to achieve hourly fire ratings. Our Applied Fireproofing teams undergo factory training by leading SFRM brands like Grace Construction, Southwest Fireproofing Products, and Superior Fire Protection to master the nuances.
We spray apply tested products like Monokote Z-146, Grace FR-150 and FlameControl 60 to achieve bond strength over 425 psi and salvage structural integrity. On large commercial projects, we use state-of-the-art Bazooka spray machines to achieve 80+ mil thickness with precise coverage on every beam. With site access challenges, we utilize telescoping spray lances.
Intumescents are technologically advanced coatings containing chemical compounds that rapidly expand when exposed to high heat. As gases form within the fire resistant coating in Denver, it “puffs up” over 100 times the original thickness as a heat shield.
We employ various techniques to apply these groundbreaking products:
Fires exploit any conduit holes punched through firewalls as pathways to spread. Our Firestop Contractors use UL-rated assemblies of sealants, putties, wraps, collars, and blocks custom-fit for penetrating openings. We seal conduits bearing electrical, gas, water, sewer, communications or air supply lines.
We also install proprietary fire-rated partitions like Grace FlameSafe and 3M Flame Stopper Systems as temporary walls to compartmentalize floor areas. These relocatable barriers provide 1 to 4 hour fire separation safe enough for occupant egress paths or fire equipment access routes when needed.
In large-scale buildings, our combination of SFRMs, intumescents and firestop barriers create an overlapping total system of protection verified through third-party inspection agencies. We document all product data, certificates of installation and code compliance forms for permanent records.
Advanced Insulation Solutions founder Adam White grew up working for his father Harold’s construction company. He helped build many Denver-area properties from the ground up and saw the liability posed by overlooked fire barriers.
After earning a fire protection certification and becoming a NICET contractor in 2011, Adam launched AIS in 2012 devoted to fireproofing. For over a decade now, the company’s focus has remained solely on applying tested, code-compliant flame retardant and fire barrier coatings. Core services include:

Fires can be catastrophic, both to your business and your personal life. Between 2015 and 2019, there were an average of over 100,000 commercial fires annually, with about 1,200 injuries, 95 deaths, and costing business owners over 2.4 billion dollars. At home, fire department responded to an average of 346,800 home structure fires annually, with 11,070 injuries, 2,620 deaths, and 7.3 billion in property damage. Not to mention the loss of priceless memories.
Fire-resistant coatings are becoming increasingly popular for both businesses and home owners for passive fire protection. They can be applied not only to new construction, but can also be applied during the renovation of existing construction. In addition to their protection against fires, they also help resist corrosion and weather.
We are certified in both intumescent and fire retardant coatings.
Intumescent coatings are sprayed on in a thin layer on most any building material. During a fire or when exposed to heat above 325°F, the coating swells and forms a thick layer of char that is similar to foam. This protect the building material from the effects of extreme heat.
After a fire, that expanded coating can be scraped off, the building material cleaned up, and the coating can be re-applied. Intumescent coatings are typically the most effective fire retardants and are used when 1, 2 or 3-hour time ratings are required.
These are water-based and have a low VOC content, meaning they are low in volatile organic compounds, which are harmful to the environment and to humans.

Fire retardant paint is now required for an increasingly high number of new home builds in the state of Colorado. Please check the building code in your area to be certain you are protected. These coatings are able to be used on a variety of building materials. During a fire, this special paint undergoes a chemical transformation, turning it into a hard shell that makes it difficult for flames to break through.
These fire retardant coatings are water-based, non-toxic, and have a low VOC content, meeting strict national and state standards for VOC and air quality. They have been thoroughly tested and provide fire protection that complies with commercial building code safety standards.
