£2.4m Fire Protection Paint
Order
Zenova announces the signing
of a significant new order for its FP fire protection coating in
the UK to
the sprayer group Drips and
Sparks Ltd who have placed an order worth
£2.4million
Zenova Group PLC (AIM: ZED), the innovative fire suppression and
interdiction solutions Company, is pleased to announce that it has
secured a two-year contract for 200,000 litres of its FP coating
with the sprayers group, Drips and Sparks Ltd, to apply
Zenova FP to steel surfaces at Gracewood Construction Ltd's project
sites in the UK.
The order is worth £2.4million to the
Company over 2 years, which will be payable against monthly
deliveries to sites specified in the previous month in equal
instalments, commencing immediately. This significant contract
comes after a successful 12-month trial period with Drips and
Sparks, both of which were negotiated and executed by Zensafe Ltd,
one of the Group's major sub-distributors in the UK.
Francois Chklar of Drips and Sparks Ltd
commented, "There is an increasing
commercial and statutory imperative in the marketplace today to
upgrade the fire suppression standards of new builds, particularly
residential properties. Working with our residential construction
partner, Gracewood Construction Ltd, we identified Zenova's
innovative FP coating as a highly-credentialed means of helping
achieve this end. We look forward to a successful programme of
delivery and application with Zenova."
Thomas Melchior, CEO of Zenova Group, commented, "This is a major contract win for our FP paint. In
addition to a significant effort from our sales team working
alongside Zensafe, winning this is also the result of the Company's
now well-engaged strategy of focusing on validating and
aggressively marketing our best-in-class fire suppression products
through a streamlined B2B distribution model. Securing a contract
of this size further demonstrates the value-add of Zenova and its
suite of high performance products, as we bring solutions to global
needs. I fully expect our team to continue to deliver new business
across all of our paint and extinguisher products, and look forward
to updating the market on those developments in the near-term and
beyond."

About Zenova Group PLC
The Group, through Zenova Ltd, is the
holder of intellectual property that underpins a suite of fire
safety and temperature management products and technology. The
product range is applicable to industrial, commercial, and
residential markets. The Group's products include fire retardant
paints, insulating paints and render, fire extinguishing fluid and
fire extinguishers. Through innovative development, and a refined
formulation and development process, Zenova provides industry
leading solutions across a range of fire protection and temperature
management problems, comprising:
Zenova FP, fire protection
paint
A water based, fire protection paint
(also known as a 'thermofoaming' or 'intumescent' paint), which can
be used on any surface and colour matched to any colour. When
exposed to heat or flames, the paint expands and creates a solid
foam-like crust which will not burn and insulates the surface it is
painted on. This prevents surfaces from catching fire and stops
fire spreading. It has been tested by global fire industry
experts and complies with UK building regulations and the latest UK
and European fire safety standards.
Zenova IP, thermal insulation
paint
A thermal insulation paint embeds the
most modern insulating technology in a thermos-like ultra-thin
layer. It saves energy by increasing the thermal
insulation level in commercial and residential
buildings. Solar heat can increase the temperature within a
building by 75% to 90%. Zenova IP has been independently tested and
validated to deflect, absorb and dissipate up to 75% of this
heat, thereby reducing the inside temperature by up to 45%.
Suitable for both exterior and interior, on any type of
surface
Zenova IR, thermal insulation
render
Zenova IR is a ready mixed insulation
render that can be applied to internal and external walls in
commercial and residential buildings to provide immediate
insulation benefits and can be colour matched to any
colour.
Zenova FX, fire
extinguishers
A fire extinguisher like no other. It
puts out class A, B, F and electrical fires fully tested against
European EN3 as well as British standards. Available in 6 and 9
litre sizes.
Zenova FX500, aerosol fire
extinguisher
The Zenova FX500 is a
high-performance handheld fire extinguisher that is tested by
independent experts and adheres to the highest industry
standards. Safe for use on any type of fire the Zenova
FX500 reduces the risk of reignition. The Zenova FX 500 is quick,
easy and safe to operated and has been tested to BS6165
standard.
Zenova WB, wildfire
barrier
A wildfire barrier fluid (applied via
spray wands or aerial drops), which provides a virtual barrier
where fire simply will not burn. Repeated tests on a variety of
extremely dry wildfire fuels (grasses, hays, brush) demonstrates
the incredible fire resistance Zenova WB provides, while remaining
viable after application for30+ days in dry conditions.
