Fire stopping installations and other means of passive fire protection are by no means a luxury – they are a mandatory design requirement in line with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. This is because even the slightest of cracks in the walls, floors, ceilings and doors of your building will enable smoke to quickly spread and could also accelerate a fire, leading to major structural damage, injury, or even loss of life.
All service penetrations in walls and floors need to be sealed with approved firestop products to slow both the smoke and fire’s journey and allow for the safe evacuation of people and assets in the event of an emergency.
By working in close partnership with market leaders, we can enlist the help of their technical support teams should we need any assistance with determining solutions to manage risk and prevent fire, smoke and toxic gases from reaching other parts of the building quickly.
