Effective Fire Penetration Sealing Systems in Essex
What are Fire Penetration Sealing Systems?
Fire penetration sealing systems are essentially the protective measures put in place to prevent fire and smoke from spreading through any openings or penetrations in a building’s walls or floors. These could be anything from pipes, cables to ducts that have been installed in the building. Our team will implement an effective and passive fire penetration sealing system that is proven to compartmentalise fire and smoke and maintain the fire resistance of a building.

What are Fire Penetration Sealing Systems Made From?
Fire penetration sealing systems are specifically designed using products such as intumescent mastic, mineral wool boarding/fire barriers and fire compounds to seal around service penetrations in walls and floors. With just one layer, these systems offer an excellent line of defence against fire and smoke for up to four hours. To ensure your building is fully protected, we can perform this service for all types of building penetrations.
Why are Fire Penetration Sealing Systems so Important?
With our many years of experience, we at Britannia Acoustic and Fire know how important fire penetration sealing systems are in preventing the spread of fire & smoke. Here are some of the many reasons why the correct passive fire protection systems are so important…
-
Saves Lives
Fire penetration sealing systems are more than just safety measures – they’re lifesavers. In the event of a fire, systems such as penetration seals can effectively compartmentalise fire and smoke, allowing the building’s occupants to escape via safe exits such as stairwells and agreed exit routes that are protected from the fire.
Limits Fire Spread
While limiting the spread of fire is crucial to saving lives, passive fire penetration sealing systems measures are also proven to reduce building-wide damage by containing fire and smoke in one area. Compartmentalising a fire in this way will also increase the amount of time occupants have to act appropriately to the risk.
Protects Structure
Fires can cause irreparable damage to buildings and severely compromise their structural integrity. Restricting the spread of a fire by implementing fire penetration sealing systems goes a long way in protecting your building’s structure against the long-term impacts of fire.
-
Legal Regulations
By law, a building should have effective fire penetration sealing systems in place in both residential and non-residential settings. The level of fire resistance required depends on the type of building, but a combination of passive and active fire protection systems should be in place to adhere to the law.
Saves Money
Having the correct fire penetration sealing systems in place is crucial to saving money in the event of a fire. Although most properties are covered by insurance, if fire and smoke aren’t contained, they could do unavoidable damage to belongings and valuables that could be costly to replace.
What is a Passive Fire Penetration Sealing System?
Passive fire protection is a vital part of any fire strategy or plan that involves systems such as penetration seals, pipe collars, cavity barriers, & fire curtains being installed into the structure of a building to protect people’s lives and reduce the damage done to buildings in the event of a fire. These systems are designed to compartmentalise the spread of fire and smoke and to slow the spread of the effects of fire and smoke without active or moving components.
