Benefits of our Fire Safety solutions
Enhance safety with fire safety solutions
A building’s fire safety measures play a critical role in protecting lives by slowing and limiting the spread and passage of fire. Fire safety is therefore an essential consideration in the design of a building and the choice of materials used in its construction.
While there are minimum standards that must be met, many building owners, specifiers and contractors choose to go further. This hub helps you to confidently specify the materials needed to reduce the spread, passage and propagation of fire in buildings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Fire resistance is the measurement of the ability of a material or system to resist, and ideally prevent, the passage of fire from one distinct area to another.
Reaction to fire is the measurement of how a material or system will contribute to the fire development and spread, particularly in the early stages of a fire when evacuation is crucial.
Euroclass is the harmonised European classification for the fire reaction performance of building materials which may appear (in descending order of significance) as A1, A2, B, C, D, E or F. Also, and depending upon national market legislation, additional information regarding smoke production and flaming droplets or particles, may be required, for example A2-s1,d0.
