Fire-Resistant Hesco Barriers: Protecting Industrial Sites from Extreme Heat

Industrial sites face high risks from fires, sparks, and molten metal. Traditional Hesco barriers fail when exposed to flames above 300°C. JOESCO  fire-resistant Hesco barriers solve this problem by combining advanced materials and certified performance.

Why Fire Resistance Matters

Fires in chemical storage areas, warehouses, or welding workshops can escalate quickly. A barrier that withstands flames and extreme heat can save property, equipment, and lives. Barriers maintain structure under pressure and high temperature, providing reliable protection.

Certified Protection

1. ASTM E84 Class A: Flame spread index ≤25, smoke density ≤450.
2. UL 263 Tested: Withstands 600°C for over 2 hours.
3. Dual Defense: Blocks flames and prevents sparks from welding or grinding.

Material Science Behind the Barrier

1. Fabric Layer: Three-layer fiberglass-PVC composite with a ceramic coating.
2. Mesh Structure: Galvanized steel coated with aluminum silicate fireproof layer.
3. Fill Options: Non-combustible vermiculite or fireproof gravel.

Performance Comparison

1.Flame Spread Index
JOESCO Fire Hesco： 20, Standard Hesco： over 200.
2.Heat Resistance
JOESCO Fire Hesco ：600°C, Standard Hesco： 300°C.
3.Smoke Density
JOESCO Fire Hesco ： 400, Standard Hesco ： over 1,000.
4.Reusability After Fire
JOESCO Fire Hesco ：retains 90% usability, Standard Hesco： not reusable.

Industrial Applications

• Chemical Storage Areas: Prevent fire spread between tanks.
• Power Plant Turbine Rooms: Isolate high-temperature equipment.
• Welding Workshops: Protect workers and nearby equipment from sparks.
• Warehouse Sections: Limit damage by dividing inventory with fire-resistant barriers.
