Passive Fire Protection
Passive fire protection is a requirement in all commercial and public buildings as well as in multi-storey residential blocks. It’s a key component of the structural fire safety in a property and is designed to prevent the spread of fire and smoke throughout the building.
The main purpose of passive fire protection is to contain the fire and smoke, allowing occupants and visitors sufficient time to safely evacuate. Typically, the owner or manager of the building is the one responsible for all fire protection requirements.
Here at GRJ we can help with all your passive fire protections needs, ensuring that your building is safe and compliant with the latest fire safety regulations.

Passive Fire Protection System
Beyond being a legal requirement, effective passive fire protection is vital for saving lives, protecting property and minimising financial loss. Given recent fire safety reviews and new regulations following the Grenfell tragedy, it's more important than ever to install effective passive fire protection systems.
For construction projects, integrating passive fire protection during the design phase can prevent costly modifications later on. In existing buildings, regular surveys and updates to your passive fire protection system are essential to ensure ongoing compliance and safety.

Frequently Asked Questions
Passive fire protection involves the installation of barriers or fire stopping materials to prevent fire from spreading from one area of the building to another. Passive fire protection systems work by using fire-resistant materials to insulate walls, floors, ceilings and cavity barriers.
Passive fire protection is essential as it limits the spread of flames, heat, and smoke by containing fire to a single compartment of a building. It also helps keep escape routes clear providing occupant's with vital time for evacuation. Another essential function of a passive fire system is protecting a building from structural damage during a fire.
Active fire protection involves systems and equipment that activates in the presence of fire to stop it from spreading. Those can be sprinklers, fire extinguishers, fire blankets, smoke alarms and other similar fire safety equipment. In contrast, passive fire protection remains inactive during a fire as it's part of the structure of a building.
