News & TipsProtect Your Electrical Systems with QCDD-Approved Firestop Solutions by MANYCON
In a fire emergency, electrical cables can act as a pathway for flame spread, increasing the risk of rapid fire propagation, circuit failure, and catastrophic damage. That’s why fireproofing your cables with certified cable coating is critical to modern passive fire protection, especially in Qatar’s high-risk industrial, commercial, and infrastructure environments.
At MANYCON TRADING AND CONTRACTING, we provide QCDD-approved cable coating services using intumescent and ablative firestop systems to ensure your electrical infrastructure remains protected and code-compliant.
What is Cable Coating Fireproofing?
Cable coating is a specialized fire protection method where fire-resistant coatings are applied directly to power, data, and control cables. These coatings are typically intumescent (expand to form a char) or ablative (absorb heat and erode slowly).
✅ Prevents flame spread along cable trays
✅ Maintains circuit integrity during fire
✅ Forms a thermal barrier against heat exposure
✅ Offers up to 2 hours of fire resistance
Why Fireproof Your Cables in Qatar?
Qatar’s environment and regulations make cable fire protection non-negotiable:
- 🔥 QCDD & NFPA fire codes require cable firestopping in risers, shafts, and service penetrations
- 🌡️ Extreme heat accelerates cable insulation failure during fires
- 🏗️ Dense commercial and infrastructure development increases fire load
- 🛢️ Oil & gas facilities demand robust fire protection for critical cable trays
Without cable fireproofing, fires can travel unchecked through ceiling voids, risers, and tunnels, making containment extremely difficult.
MANYCON’s Cable Coating Application Process
Our certified team follows a step-by-step system to ensure maximum safety and compliance:
Inspection & Surface Preparation
- Removal of dust, oil, and debris
Seal Gaps & Penetrations
- With tested firestop sealants or pillows
Coating Application
- Brushed or sprayed fireproofing material on cable bundles
- Thickness checks (WFT/DFT) as per fire rating
Labeling & Documentation
- Application logs, test reports, and compliance certificates
We use QCDD-listed brands such as Hilti, 3M, and Promat.
