It’s important to understand that any fire protection service has to be regularly scrutinised and inspected so therefore the simpler the service the better quality of fire protection you might have. Steel protective boards consists of many different steps consisting of metal rails, various compounds and fixings such as screws, glue & fillers. For this service, we usually find that is better suited to a building project that has a higher budget and can afford to have extra personnel to check each application as not one person can check every part. However, the actual part of applying this service is, in fact, quick and doesn’t disrupt other Jobsite activities.

Saying that we cannot stress how effective this passive protection service can be in protecting steel beams and other steel structures. A typical fire protection board is usually made of a mineral (calcium silicate or calcium sulfate) reinforced with fibers and fillers. Some boards, in addition to providing fire protection, were also further reinforced for durability, specifically for resistance to humidity and freeze-thaw.

As a result, boards have a strong advantage of being produced in a controlled environment, with strict tolerances for relevant properties, including thickness.

A fire in a steel-framed building could be catastrophic for those inside. The premature collapse of the building is a real possibility, which is why structural steel protection is essential to ensure the safety of your building and the occupants inside. At Fire Immunity, we have worked on multiple steel-structured buildings in Bristol & South West Area over the last 4 years, installing solutions to make them meet fire regulations and be as safe as can be.

Fire safety in the workplace is one of the top priorities for business owners so reducing the risk of any fires spreading should be a top priority. Fire spreads rapidly from room to room and can often be sparked by an electrical fault within a commercial property that cannot always be monitored, especially after hours. Fire Immunity provides fire-rated partitions that prevent fire from spreading throughout a building for up to 200 minutes, all installed by our experts, with IFC (International Fire Consultants) & SMAS (Safety Management Advisory Services) accreditation, across the South-West.
