Our Cavity Fire Fabric is an ultra lightweight Fire Resistant woven multi layered material that is both fire proof and heat insulating. It can be installed as a cavity fire stopping barrier in place of heavier traditional 'wool' type products. Complies with BS 476: parts 20/22.

Our Fire Fabrics are fully tested and UK IFC Certificated for flame, smoke and insulation. They can be supplied as fire curtains or supplied on rolls for the erection of vertical fire compartments within voids in buildings.

What is our Cavity Fire Barrier material?

An IFC Certified ultra lightweight 6.5mm x 3 layer fire fabric designed to provide vertical compartmentation in roof and floor cavities and concealed spaces as detailed in UK Building Regulations: Approved Document B (Fire Safety).
