About Us


“Change is good… but keep the past in mind when you make decisions about the future.”

Products and services change, Building and Fire Codes improve, and new approaches emerge.  The fireproofing industry is no different – just imagine that 30 years ago, asbestos was a good idea.

Late in 2015, Passive Protection, Inc. completed the asset purchase of FUS, Inc. and Wesconn Co., Inc., Connecticut-based leaders in SFRM applications to the New England market for almost 40 years.  Their history of success, experience, and knowledge forged a top reputation in the design and construction industries for delivering high-quality solutions for:

  • Cementitious and Intumescent Fireproofing
  • Spray-applied Thermal Acoustical Insulation
  • Flame Retardant Application and Certification

Our in-house and field personnel bring decades of fireproofing expertise to the ever-changing needs of today’s construction projects. These services remain; the teams remain; so you can expect the same exceptional results.

Passive Protection, Inc. in affiliation with CODEpliance, Inc., a Massachusetts-based Fire Code Compliance company, offers a look toward the future of fireproofing.  With over 20 years of flame retardant experience, the design benefits of fireproofing extend beyond the typical structural steel applications to include fabrics, wood, plastics, and other difficult materials.  Through their patent-pending technology and associations with Building and Fire Code development agencies, Fire Code Compliance data is collected for each project to assist with inspections, insurance requirements, and ongoing maintenance cycles.

Passive Protection, Inc. is bringing a fresh approach to fireproofing.  By combining a lightweight, tech-centric Fire Code Compliance company with a time-tested, well-established fireproofing company, Passive Protection, Inc. offers the most comprehensive passive fire protection resource to architects, engineers, general contractors, and project owners.

We look forward to working with you (or continuing to work with you) and please do not hesitate in contacting us for any application, installation, testing or inspection needs.
