Fire Protection
The effects of fire can be devastating - on ships, in mass transportation and in public buildings. Flames manage to penetrate breaches in walls from ductwork and cable conduits, through wall and ceiling partitions, and between ceiling and wall joints.

By using foam firestop sealants, these voids and gaps can be sealed against the passage of fire, smoke or other harmful gases without the loss of adhesion from normal environmental movement.

Joints


Cable DuctsCable Ducts
Cable Ducts Floor, wall and bulkhead penetrating items, such as electrical conduits and copper or steel pipes, can become incidental conduits for invasive smoke and fire. Using specially formulated silicone sealants can help seal these channels against the passage of fire, smoke or other harmful gases.


JointsJoints
Joints When a structure is in flames, one of the most difficult things to control is the spread of fire and toxic smoke. Our firestop sealants can help fill the gaps in wall, expansion and perimeter joints, which can help slow the spread of fire and smoke.
