Testimonials

  • We used Black Rock fireproof columns in the main lobby spaces of the renovated Platt High School in Meriden, CT. They looked great and solved our fireproofing issues perfectly.

  • We were very happy with the Blackrock Fireproof Columns we used at the Taconic High School Project. They eliminated the need for messy Intumescent Paint that would otherwise have been required on the exposed columns. The use of the Black Rock Fireproof Columns allowed our schedule to be expedited, without having to go back to fireproof the columns and it resulted in cost efficiencies eliminating the need for expensive Intumescent Painting.
