Partitions

Fire partitioning is a crucial safety measure implemented during new construction projects to effectively curb the spread of fire. This involves the installation of internal walls and ceilings that confine the fire within specific areas or rooms of the building for a limited period. By containing the fire, this approach allows occupants to locate escape routes and mitigates damage to the building, as only designated areas are affected.

Wherever it is needed, automatic fire suppression is available.
The spread of fire and smoke in cavities is limited
