Fire rated ductwork and fire dampers work to contain fire and smoke within designated compartments. They are designed to maintain the fire resistance of a building while allowing ventilation and air movement under normal operating conditions.
In the event of a fire, fire dampers automatically activate to close off duct openings, preventing the spread of flames and smoke through ventilation systems. Fire rated ductwork is constructed to withstand high temperatures, ensuring that fire-resisting compartments remain effective and escape routes are better protected.
At Next Gen Group, we provide the installation of fire rated ductwork and dampers using tested and certified systems that meet the relevant UK fire safety standards.
Our experienced Passive Fire Protection team works closely with contractors, building owners and facilities managers to ensure every installation is completed correctly, helping to maintain compliance and the overall integrity of your building’s fire protection strategy.
