Passive fire protection
– We protect the building against the spread of fire.
Passive fire protection is the foundation of a safe building. At Knaut, we ensure that the fire is partitioned into zones, preventing smoke and flames from spreading before evacuation is complete.
Many view passive fire protection as something invisible, hidden away in walls and ceilings. However, these technical solutions determine whether a small fire turns into a catastrophe. We perform all work in accordance with the latest requirements in the Danish Building Regulations (BR18), ensuring you full documentation for the authorities.
What we offer within passive fire protection
- Firesealing of installations: When pipes, ventilation, and cables penetrate fire-rated walls, critical gaps occur. We perform professional firesealing using approved materials (collars, fire paint, and boards) that maintain the wall's fire rating (e.g., EI60).
- Fire protection of steel structures: Steel loses its load-bearing capacity at high temperatures. We secure your structures with fire-retardant paint or fire insulation, ensuring the building maintains its stability in the event of a fire.
- Fire joints and expanding materials: We ensure that all joints in the building are sealed, preventing toxic smoke from penetrating small cracks and openings.
Why choose Knaut for your project?
- Statutory documentation: We know that documentation is just as important as the physical work. We provide photo documentation and overviews of all completed fireseals for your fire technical report.
- Expertise in fire classes: Regardless of whether your construction falls under BK1 or BK4, we advise on the correct solutions that meet the requirements of the certified fire consultant.
- High quality, no shortcuts: Fire protection is about human lives. We only use thoroughly tested products from recognized suppliers.
