Fire-resistant building materials are substances designed to withstand fire and resist melting for an extended period, providing adequate time for occupants to safely evacuate the premises. These materials contribute to fire protection in construction and include concrete, reinforcement steel, gypsum, cast iron, bricks, asbestos cement, timber, stone, glass, and other fire-resistant components. They serve to safeguard construction sites from fire incidents and enhance overall safety.
The primary categories of fire protection materials for construction encompass coatings, mortar, sealants and fillers, sheets or boards, spray, preformed devices, putty, cast-in devices, and other variations. Mortar, for instance, is a substance applied to fill gaps between bricks and blocks in masonry construction, consisting of a paste made from sand, cement, or lime that solidifies over time. Naturally fire and heat-resistant materials like clay, cement, lime, and sand are integral components. Mortar finds application in various sectors, including commercial, industrial, residential, and others, serving roles in structural support, compartmentation, opening protection, and fire-stopping materials.

The fire protection materials for construction market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $4.69 billion in 2023 to $5.09 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including adherence to building codes and regulations, a heightened focus on safety and risk mitigation measures, the effects of urbanization and population growth, increased demand for industrial and commercial projects, and the requirements imposed by the insurance industry. These factors collectively contributed to the growth experienced during the historic period.
The fire protection materials for construction market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.02 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period is driven by several factors, including the rise in high-rise construction projects, the retrofitting of existing buildings for enhanced fire safety, the increasing use of fire-resistant coatings, the growth of fire-resistant insulation applications, and the ongoing development of infrastructure. Significant trends expected in the forecast period encompass the adoption of smart fire protection systems, the implementation of high-rise fire safety solutions, advancements in fire testing and certification processes, the utilization of fire-resistant glass, and the emergence of bio-based fire protection materials, reflecting the industry's commitment to innovative and sustainable solutions.
The increasing regulations mandating the use of fire safety materials are expected to positively impact the growth of the fire protection materials for the construction market. Fire safety standards globally are designed to reduce the fire response of products and materials in various living environments, encompassing domestic dwellings, household equipment, furnishings, electronics, buildings, and different modes of transportation. These standards aim to prevent fires by establishing performance-based norms that enhance the fire safety of materials and products. As an example, the Home Office introduced the Fire Safety Bill in April 2021 as part of its commitment to improving fire safety in buildings across England and Wales. Successfully navigating the parliamentary process, the bill became the Fire Safety Act 2021 after enactment on April 29, 2021. The growing regulatory environment is expected to drive the growth of fire protection materials for the construction market.
The rapid increase in the number of fire incidents is anticipated to further boost the growth of the fire protection materials for the construction market. Fire incidents refer to situations where fires occur, causing damage or posing potential threats to property, people, or the environment. Fire-resistant building materials play a crucial role in preventing or minimizing the spread of fire, protecting structures, and providing occupants with more time to evacuate. A survey conducted by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) in September 2022 revealed that local fire departments in the US attended around 1,353,500 fires, resulting in 3,800 civilian fatalities, 14,700 civilian injuries, and property damage worth $15.9 billion. The rising number of fire incidents is a significant driver for the growth of fire protection materials in the construction market.
Leading manufacturers in the fire materials for construction market are consistently focusing on cutting-edge research and technological advancements to create improved fire protection materials. These materials are designed to withstand fire for longer durations and emit less smoke when burned. In June 2022, Hempel A/S, a Denmark-based manufacturer of coating solutions, announced the launch of Hempafire XTR 100, a new protection material for the hydrocarbon Passive Fire Protection (PFP) segment. This lightweight coating is engineered for the passive fire protection of downstream assets in the oil and gas industry, offering a low dry film thickness. This example highlights the industry's commitment to innovation and the development of advanced fire protection solutions.
Major companies in the fire protection materials for the construction market are actively developing innovative products to meet the growing demand for advanced fire protection materials. One notable example is the introduction of FS719 HP Blue, a distinctive sealant specifically crafted for CPVC materials. In September 2022, Nullfire, a UK-based global leader in fire-stopping solutions, launched FS719 HP Blue, a novel sealant product designed to provide fire resistance for CPVC materials for up to 120 minutes. The product's distinctive blue hue facilitates easy identification and tracking on the job site, contributing to efficient installation and maintenance processes.
In a strategic move in August 2023, The Hiller Companies, a US-based provider of fire protection products and services, acquired Fire Defense Services, Inc. for an undisclosed amount.
