What We Do

---

Fire stopping is a passive fire protection method used to seal openings and joints in fire-rated walls and floors. These penetrations are often made for mechanical, electrical, or structural elements (like pipes, ducts, or cables), and if left unprotected, can allow fire and smoke to spread quickly through a building. 

Key Purposes:

• Prevent fire and smoke from spreading between compartments
• Maintain the integrity of fire-rated structures
• Help occupants evacuate safely
• Allow fire services more time to respond

Common Materials Used:

• Fire-resistant sealants
• Intumescent collars
• Fire sleeves and wraps
• Fire-rated boards and pillows

Typical Applications:

• Around service penetrations (cables, pipes)
• Wall-to-floor and wall-to-wall joints
• Cable trays and ductwork entries
