LEADING manufacturer of passive fire protection solutions, Promat UK, is providing architects, clients and contractors with a 360 degree‘ wheel of assurance’ for fire rated interior glazing through its complete glazing system, Promat SYSTEMGLAS ®, to offer assured fire protection for up to 120 minutes.
With SYSTEMGLAS, Promat is unique in the market for being able to supply a glazing system of this kind, designed to offer excellent aesthetic potential thanks to the availability of butt-joints, which is checked for quality and inspected by fire safety experts at every stage.
SYSTEMGLAS utilises Promat’ s comprehensive fire glass product range, which is suitable for all building applications with fire ratings of between 30 and 120 minutes. Promat’ s technical experts provide guidance on the right approach at the design and specification stage, and the system is manufactured in-house to ensure all cutting and processing is completed to the correct standard. Concluding the wheel, Promat inspects SYSTEMGLAS on completion to ensure it has been installed in accordance with its recommendations and provides a certificate of conformity for installation.
Promat can provide this assurance because it is in complete control of the design and manufacture process, and it has in-depth knowledge of the installation requirements. This means supply chain risks, such as product substitution or poor installation, can be eliminated.
Promat, which is part of the Etex Group and has recently completed the relocation of its main UK operations to a 62,000-sq. ft. HQ and manufacturing plant in Heywood, Lancashire, has been producing passive fire protection solutions for more than 30 years.
