Benefits of Fireproof Glass Screens

Fire protection in work environments and public buildings is crucial. But that does not mean that aesthetics have to be sacrificed.

Advances in glass and frame technology mean that escape routes no longer need to feature dark, solid fire walls. Fire rated glass and thermally insulated frames now allow the bright, airy environments enjoyed in modern offices to continue throughout the building. Common areas and staircases of commercial premises, hospitals and schools can be designed to make the full use of natural light, while still meeting stringent building regulations.

Systems for fire resistant applications are rated by defined protection periods – usually 30, 60, 90 or 120 minutes – as designated by European Standards. To ensure that the stated fire performance is achieved, fire resistant glass must be used in an approved glazing system that is installed by fully qualified specialists.
