Fire stopping creates vital barriers that block the spread of fire and smoke through gaps in buildings, effectively restoring the strength of fire-rated structures. When services like cables, pipes, and ducts breach fire-resistant elements, they can weaken protection—fire stopping ensures those vulnerabilities are sealed to maintain safety and compliance.

What is Fire Stopping?

Fire stopping helps prevent the spread of fire and smoke throughout different compartments. Without this being in place, properties are at risk along with the lives of its occupants.

All items that breach a compartment line should be suitably fire stopped, ensuring buildings have the correct compartmentation both horizontally and vertically.
