Whether for rigid floors and walls, flexible walls, plastic or metal pipes with or without insulation, or even composite pipes, ArmaProtect provides specifiers and installers with solutions for almost all piping configurations in the building.
Composed of intumescent strips, collars, coated mineral fiber panels, sealants and mortars, the new ArmaProtect range is the ideal complement to ArmaFlex® Protect: Armacell's passive fire safety solution which combines in a Even produces great fire resistance, condensation control and thermal insulation.
Hakan Nayır, Product Manager at Armacell EMEA, explains: “Pipes, conduits and electrical cables pass through fire compartments and form a path along which flames and smoke can spread. With ArmaProtect, our new range of passive fire protection, pipes and cables passing through fire walls and floors can be insulated reliably and quickly. Depending on the type of technical traversal, customers can use our latest innovation as a stand-alone solution or as part of a system. "
By preventing the spread of fire, ArmaProtect and ArmaFlex Protect improve safety in buildings, extend the time available to building users to get out in the event of a fire and give emergency teams extra time to do their work. In addition, they ensure that wall and floor penetrations pass inspections in accordance with local building codes.
All products have been tested and classified in accordance with the strict testing requirements corresponding to classification standards and European Assessment Documents (EEDs) in order to obtain their European Technical Assessments (ETA), which provide detailed information on their performance. The ETAs provide all the product installation data according to the project configuration.
This allows specifiers and installers to offer and use approved construction products not covered by a harmonized European standard, throughout Europe.
Armacell provides comprehensive performance and installation information for its passive fire protection products to ensure ETA compliant specification and application.
