About Zenova Group PLC

Zenova Group PLC specializes in the development and supply of advanced fire safety and temperature management technologies for industrial, commercial, and residential sectors. Its product portfolio includes the Zenova FP fire protection paint, Zenova IP thermal insulation paint, and the Zenova FX series of fire extinguishers, all engineered to meet the highest safety and efficiency standards in the industry. The product range is applicable to industrial, commercial, and residential markets.

Zenova FP, fire protection paint

A water based, fire protection paint (also known as a 'thermofoaming' or 'intumescent' paint), which can be used on any surface and colour matched to any colour. When exposed to heat or flames, the paint expands and creates a solid foam-like crust which will not burn and insulates the surface it is painted on. This prevents surfaces from catching fire and stops fire spreading. It has been tested by global fire industry experts and complies with UK building regulations and the latest UK and European fire safety standards.

Zenova IP, thermal insulation paint

A thermal insulation paint embeds the most modern insulating technology in a thermos-like ultra-thin layer. It saves energy by increasing the thermal insulation level in commercial and residential buildings. Solar heat can increase the temperature within a building by 75% to 90%. Zenova IP has been independently tested and validated to deflect, absorb and dissipate up to 75% of this heat, thereby reducing the inside temperature by up to 45%. Suitable for both exterior and interior, on any type of surface
