Fire Barriers From Foamrox

In Short

What Is a Fire Barrier?

A fire barrier is a passive fire protection system designed to compartmentalize fire and smoke, preventing their spread between different sections of a tunnel or building. Foamrox fire barriers are prefabricated from Foam Glass, providing a lightweight yet robust solution that ensures critical infrastructure remains protected and accessible during an emergency.

The Principle Behind the Solution

How It Works

Foamrox provides prefabricated fire barriers engineered to fit perfectly within their designated tunnel locations. By utilizing rock profile scans provided by the client, we precision-tailor each element to match the natural contours and irregularities of the rock surface. This customized approach generates significant logistical advantages and drastically reduces on-site installation time. All Foamrox fire barriers are EI60 certified, ensuring a final installation that is 100% fire- and smoke-tight.
