We're seeking Registrations of Interest (ROI) from suitably qualified and experienced organisations for products providing fire protection to timber utility poles, specifically external surface treatments to mitigate ignition and charring during bushfires.

Please provide information on suitable fire retardant wraps and/or coatings, including fire ratings, durability, UV/weather performance, and available sizes.

This ROI is your opportunity to showcase your organisation and capabilities for future market activities. It is not a tender, but an initial step to identify and assess suppliers via a questionnaire, with a tender expected around September 2026.
