Fire Proof Ceiling Fabric - laid between wooden joists
These fire proofing fabric linings will stop fire, smoke and heat from penetrating for up to 60 minutes, to protect the floor, flat, shop or office above.
In Listed Buildings, Commercial Property and in some domestic situations it is a legal requirement to provide a fire proofing barrier between floor levels. However, in many cases lath and plaster or ornate mouldings prevent replacement or over boarding of the ceiling itself, so the insertion of a Fire Fabric barrier from above is the only option.
In traditional ceilings, where the existing plaster or lath and plaster ceiling does not qualify as tested a fire proof barrier, a Fire Fabric ceiling can be inserted into the spaces between the timber joists, turned up 100mm on the joist sides and clamped in place using our lightweight galvanized steel 50mm x 25mm angle, which is screw fixed at 250mm centres.
In suspended ceilings, where the existing ceiling does not qualify, a Fire Fabric ceiling can be inserted into the void, but will require the use of our lightweight galvanized steel channel for support.

Passive Fire Barrier Fabrics: call us on 01626 872886 .
Passive Cavity Fire Barriers were developed primarily for the Building Industry as a flexible, lightweight and easy to install solution to all compartmentalization requirements, to replace the traditional “mineral fibre” type fire barriers. Lightweight, woven fire barriers are easy to install and pose no handling or health hazards to the installers or building occupiers.
These passive fire protection barriers were then developed into Marine Fire Insulation products for ships. The woven fire, heat and smoke barrier fabrics are easily fitted and shaped to awkward ships bulkheads and passageways, insulating steel parts and ducting from heat.
Fire Fabrics formed into boxes and covers. These can be inserted into floor voids over speakers, downlighters, for example.

Fire Certificate of Supply
Certificates for: Class O and Class 1, 30 minutes and 60 minutes minutes smoke, flame and heat insulation.
Colours: generally white
Finishes: matt
TEST STANDARDS - there are three relevant fire test standards
Class 1 - requires no surface spread of flame.
This is the Standard normally required for walls and ceilings.
Class 0 - is an additional level of protection for walls or ceilings where limited combustibility is required in high-risk areas, such as escape routes.
To comply materials must have a Class 1 Surface Spread of Flame and low fire propagation index in accordance with BS 476 Part 6. This test checks that the coating does not add to the heat or intensity of the fire.
Fire Penetration Resistance - 30 minutes to 120 minutes.
Passive Fire Barrier fabrics or Intumescent Coatings are used to prevent the penetration of fire through a structure for a specific period in accordance with BS 476 Parts 20 - 23 1987. Such coatings are given classifications for specific periods of time, such as "30 minutes". Fabrics and Intumescent systems are available for protecting structural timbers, steel and plasterwork (including plastered and plaster boarded walls and ceilings).
CERTIFICATION - why you will need our Certificate of Supply
A Fire Certificate of Supply can be issued for each Project. This is essential if you have to satisfy your Insurers, the Fire and Building Control Authority and for Client Records. Without a Fire Certificate of Supply you may be vulnerable to prosecution in the event of a fire. We cannot issue a Certificate of Supply if we have not produced a Specification in the first place, so please do not buy paints without asking for a Specification.
