Possible support

The appropriate specification depends on the building, the required performance and the evidence for the proposed system. Site review comes before a recommendation.
How we work

From condition to considered action.

Fireproof supports architects, contractors and property teams with practical reviews, product selection and passive fire protection works. We can survey existing conditions, set out a suitable scope and carry out agreed installations where appropriate.

  1. Understand the building and the concern.
  2. Review the relevant drawings, fire strategy or assessment.
  3. Agree a suitable, evidenced approach and scope.
  4. Record the works carried out and provide project documentation.
