Fire protection
All you need to know about controlling damage during a fire
We develop and thoroughly test firestop products to provide additional value beyond firestopping and airflow control. Our firestop systems enhance the overall building performance in many areas. They meet the latest industry needs and are easy to install, retrofit and inspect.
Our passive firestop solutions for hospitals help insulate the noise between rooms and from the street as they help reduce vibration transmitted through the structure. Thanks to the flexible nature of our products, our products can account for thermal or mechanical movements. The fabric-free and low volatile organic compound (VOC) solutions help you create a healthier environment in your building, complying with respected green building standards.

BIM/CAD library Technical ArticlesFirestopping In Buildings Book
A fire protection book written by Engr. Kamalika Kundu & Engr. Joanna Gatus
"Firestopping in Building" provides in-depth information on the concept of firestopping – building applications, standards for performance assessment, and criteria for selection, installation, and inspection.
This is a useful resource for you as it will provide relevant materials on passive fire protection for the whole life cycle of a building (i.e., from planning and design to construction and maintenance).
