The Envirograf ® brand was established in 1983 and it quickly evolved to become a leading force in passive fire products. Its reputation as innovator and developer of passive fire products is widely recognised, and its commitment to product research and development is second to none.

THE HALLMARK OF EXCELLENCE

Envirograf ® passive fire products carry the hallmark of excellence, reflecting the high standards that prevail in its laboratory, test rig, and manufacturing plant. Envirograf ® passive fire products are subject to rigorous quality control which, at all stages, ensures products remain at the leading edge of fire containment technology. This quality has earned the company and its passive fire products a high reputation, with its operating system being accredited to ISO9001.

CONSIDERING EVERY RISK

When it comes to passive fire protection, every risk must be considered to ensure that loss of life and loss of property are kept to a minimum.

While many people are aware of the importance of fire barriers in preventing or delaying the spread of fire, they do not always consider the effects of breaching the fire barrier, perhaps to allow electrical wires or other services to pass through. That is why a range of Envirograf ® intumescent products has been designed, to safeguard the integrity of fire barriers, whether they are ceilings, floors, roofs, or walls.

CHOOSING APPROPRIATE PASSIVE FIRE PRODUCTS

Other passive fire products in the Envirograf ® range are designed to protect a structure or item so that it can maintain its structural performance in a fire (e.g. load-bearing steelwork or fire doors). Choosing the correct passive fire products is essential. Seals must offer the same level of fire protection as the fire barrier they are to seal. For example, a ceiling with a fire protection rating of 60 minutes needs a passive seal with a rating of 60 minutes in order to maintain its integrity. When it comes to protecting a structural item in a building, it is vital to find out its protection rating and ensure that it maintains the load-bearing capacity in a fire.
