Australia’s Trusted Experts in Passive Fire Protection

Its main components are as follows:

• Compartmentalization – dividing the building into smaller fire-resistant sections using fire rated walls, floors and ceilings.
• Fire-resistant materials – using materials such as fire boards, vermiculite spray, intumescent paint, fire wraps etc. to enable structural elements such as columns and beams and HVAC components such as mechanical ducts to withstand high-temperatures within a specified time.
• Opening Protection – installing fire doors, windows, and other opening protections to prevent the spread of fire and smoke through openings in fire resistant walls.
• Penetration sealing – sealing penetrations (e.g. pipes, cables) passing through fire resistant walls, ceilings or flooring.

Fire Boards and Fire Rated Batts Solutions

Fire resistant boards provide a passive fire solution for structural steel, fire walls, fire rated bulkheads, and service enclosures. These fire boards keep fires contained within compartments, preventing the fire from spreading across a building, while minimising damages.

Fire rated batts are a cost effective and lightweight alternative to the fire rated boards we provide, helping the client to save money in situations where they can be applied.

Batts and boards are both used in conjunction with many other passive fire protection products to achieve the required fire rating level that the client requires.
