fireproofed
Made heat immune
Fireproofed describes something that has been treated or constructed to resist fire or high temperatures.
Buildings are fireproofed with special coatings, insulation, or materials that slow combustion: The steel beams were fireproofed with spray-on coating.
Documents or valuables may be stored in fireproofed safes.
The treatment doesn't make something immune to fire—just more resistant.
