Commercial Firestopping

Nearly 70% of commercial building deaths are due to smoke inhalation. Firestopping is a passive form of fire protection and safety that helps to maintain a commercial buildings integrity. Used to prevent the spread of flames, gases, and toxic smoke through any openings caused by building upgrades, plumbing or other installations, firestopping barriers fill any penetrations in fire resistant walls or assemblies. This system of firestopping is required by law for any building to ensure the maintenance of fire resistant walls or assemblies in case of the spread of fire.
