Concept Store “Empreintes” – Paris
Verniflam® Intumescent System
It is on more than 600m², spread over 4 floors bathed in light that Empreintes, the concept store of crafts, offers for sale unique pieces or small series, handmade in the workshops of French designers.
Directed by Élizabeth Leriche:
“To give life to this new shopping destination, I imagined a sober place, with a refined atmosphere in order to give pride of place to objects and highlight all the know-how in a real living space”
With its café, library and projection room, EMPREINTES becomes a meeting place for collectors and lovers of sensitive objects.
Protecflam proposed its Verniflam® intumescent varnish which increases the fire resistance of the wood up to 60 minutes (R60) depending on the cross-sections. The exposed wooden beams are original in this historic building, the larger-scale works that would change the appearance of the structure were unthinkable and the improvement of their fire resistance by this technique was necessary.
