Norkote, Inc. has established itself as a reputable leader in the fire protective coating industry since its inception in 1952.

These services are critical for certain types of commercial and industrial buildings to comply with building code regulations. The wide range of fireproofing services offered includes spray applied fireproofing, cementitious fireproofing, mineral fiber fireproofing, and mastic fireproofing, among others.
With decades of experience, Norkote has built a solid reputation for quality workmanship that adheres to industry standards, characterized by an unwavering commitment to safety, integrity, and excellence. The company operates in various environments, delivering services to high-rise office buildings, hospitals, military bases, airports, and more. As a union company, Norkote is proficient at navigating the complexities of working in restrictive settings, ensuring timely project execution while minimizing impacts on other trades involved.
