UL – 723 (ASTM E-84, ANSI)“Flame Spread and Smoke Production on Coated Louvered Door Panels
| Location: | Underwriters Laboratories |
| Test Date: | 8.11.2017 |
ASTM E84-16 Test for Surface Burning Characteristics of Building Materials (UL 723, UBC 8-1, NFPA 255)
| Location: | Intertek |
| Test Date: | 10.21.2016 |
This report describes the results of the AST E84-16 test for surface burning characteristics of building materials, a method for determining their comparative surface burning behavior. The sample tested was Contego RFB HS Painted Southern Yellow Pine on louvered doors typically used on residential utility closets. What’s remarkable is how well the Contego coating protected even the thin, angled louvers.

UBC – 26.2 “Test Methods for the Evaluation of Thermal Barriers”
| Location: | Omega Point |
| Test Date: | 11.27.2002 |
This test is designed to last for 15 minutes with some HUD requirements calling for 20 minutes. The Contego product, applied at a rate of 20 mils (dft) exceeded both requirements and the test terminated shortly thereafter. The specimen was atypically thin (7/16″) and was intentionally split down the middle and gapped 1/8″ to put it at a severe disadvantage.
UBC – 26.3 “Room Fire Test Standard for Interior of Foam Plastic Systems”
| Location: | SwRI |
| Test Date: | 11.05.2002 |
After 11 minutes after the start of the test, all indicators – smoke generation, temperature, and threshold heat rise, were all actually declining and continued to decline until the test was terminated.
ASTM D3359 “Standard Methods For Measuring Adhesion by Tape Test”
| Location: | Touchstone Laboratories |
| Test Date: | 01.27.2004 |
Using both methods available under ASTM D-3359, adhesion was 100% with 0% paint loss by peeling or removal on a completely nonporous surface.
ASTM E-84.98 (UL-723, ANSI A-2.5, NFPA 255 & UBC 8-1 & 42-1)
“Flame Spread and Smoke Production on PMDO”
| Location: | Intertek |
| Test Date: | 10.06.2005 |
We tested Dynea paper fascia overlay on LP’s PMDO Smooth Suffit and limited flame spread to 10 and smoke development to 25 with an application rate of 60 sq. ft./gallon. The paper fascia adds an enormous amount of fuel to the assembly, so the results were particularly outstanding.
UL – 723 (ASTM E-84, ANSI A-2.5, NFPA 255 & UBC 8-1 & 42-1) “Flame Spread and Smoke Production on Douglas Fir” (2 Coats)
| Location: | Underwriters Laboratories |
| Test Date: | 01.03.2007 |
This is a standard flame spread and smoke production test. Contego was applied thinner than normally recommended, 2 coats at a spread rate of 145 sq. ft. per gallon, versus our specified 2 coats at 130 sq. ft. per gallon. Regardless, the tests results show an averaged outcome of 0 flame spread and 0 smoke production. Contego gets better flame spread and smoke production results on Douglas Fir plywood than other intumescents get on steel.
NFPA 286 “Standard Methods of Fire Test for Evaluating Contribution of Wall & Ceiling Interior Finish to Room Fire Growth”
| Location: | Omega Point |
| Test Date: | 08.22.2002 |
Contego passed the 15 minute test well within the limits of thermal performance.
ASTM D4541-09e1 “Pull-Off Strength of Coatings Using Portable Adhesion Testers”
| Test Name: | ASTM-D4541-09e1 |
| Location: | KTA |
| Test Date: | 09.25.2013 |
Our ASTM D-4541 test was conducted September 25, 2013 at KTA and showed over 630 PSI, more than twice that of our closest competitor and four times that of others. Combined with results of our ASTM D3359 test using both the cross cut and ribbon cut methods with 0% loss, nothing beats Contego’s adhesion.
