- NoFire Technologies Helps Ships Meet SOLAS Maritime Reporter, Apr 2000 #48
In December 1996 the IMO adopted amendments to the SOLAS Convention that affect fire safety measures aboard ships. The amendments encompass a new International Code for the Application of Fire Test Procedures, which has been made mandatory on or after July 1.
1998.
These significant changes affect Chapter II-2 of the SOLAS Code, Construction- Fire protection, fire detection and fire extinction. Regulation 34 requires nearly all exposed and concealed surfaces to have low flame-spread characteristics, as well as all paints not being capable of producing an excessive amount of smoke and toxic products.
In response to these new amendments and guidelines. NoFire Technologies, located in Upper Saddle River, N.J. has developed NoFire A-18 paint, which has been tested at Southwest Research Institute of San Antonio, Texas, exceeding requirements and complying with Reso- lution A.653(161) and Resolution M S C . 4 1 ( 6 4 ) .
NoFire A-18 has Type Approval from the U.S.
Coast Guard, ABS, DNV and Lloyd's Register for use on all vessels.
The preceding was excerpted from an article written by Dr. Samuel Gottfried, DEE. PhD; NoFire's president/chief technical officer.
