Aviation

The aviation industry has its own collection of fire hazards, with the potential for a fire to start in a number of ways. Surprisingly, the latest approach for in-flight fire protection is to simply “land as soon as possible.” Although there are active firefighting devices such as automatic fire suppression systems and fire extinguishers on board in the event of a fire, there is very little passive fire safety (to prevent the fire from spreading).

Because of the increased use of composite materials in planes, the threat profile of in-flight smoke and fire is also changing. After combustion, composite materials burn differently, spread heat differently, and contain harmful substances in various ways.

Zenova FP can easily be applied to compartmentalize any potential fire hazard zone, mitigating the ever-present risk being faced by this industry. Not only does Zenova FP restrict the spread of fire on any substrate, it also buys much-needed time for personnel to respond to dangerous situations where every second counts.
