Fire safety is essential for any building, and fire-resistant curtains offer a unique way to safeguard your space. Designed to act as a temporary barrier, fire-resistant curtains are ideal for compartmentalizing areas and slowing the spread of fire and smoke, giving people more time to evacuate and fire responders more time to act. Check out our fire-resistant curtains today!
Why Choose Fire Resistant Curtains?
Fire-resistant curtains work differently than fire-resistant roller shutters. They’re crafted from durable, heat-resistant materials that are flexible yet incredibly strong, allowing them to cover spaces that require fire protection without the need for rigid installations. These curtains can be deployed quickly, providing a flexible solution that suits various environments, from industrial to commercial spaces. Here’s why our fire-resistant curtains are a top choice:
- Highly Certified Protection: Our curtains meet European fire safety standards, such as EN 13501-2, ensuring reliable performance in emergencies.
- Efficient Deployment: When triggered, fire-resistant curtains quickly drop into place automatically close upon fire detection by gravity failsafe system to contain the spread of flames ánd smoke.
- Space-Saving Flexibility: Ideal for areas where a permanent fire barrier isn’t practical, fire-resistant curtains offer a compact, easy-to-store option.
How Do Fire Resistant Curtains Work?
Fire-resistant curtains are made with special, fire-retardant fabrics treated to withstand extreme temperatures. When connected to your building’s fire system, these curtains can deploy automatically upon fire detection, creating an immediate barrier to stop flames and smoke from spreading further. This containment is crucial, as it keeps the fire localized, reducing the risk to other areas of the building.
All the products feature the mandatory CE marking in accordance with EN 16034.
