Fire shutters are specialised barriers installed within buildings which are crucial to prevent the spread of fire and smoke, working as a core element to protect a building and provide valuable time for occupants to escape.  Fire shutter testing and certification are fundamental to ensuring that the materials, systems and overall design comply with current fire safety standards. The benefits of choosing tested and certified fire shutters
  1. Enhanced Safety - The primary reason for choosing certified shutters is the assurance of enhanced safety. Certified shutters are proven to be effective at containing fire and allowing safe evacuation and reducing the risk of the fire spreading. 
  2. Compliance - Choosing certified shutters ensures that they comply with fire safety regulations and building codes, this is essential for not only legal reasons but also for the protection of assets and people within the building.
  3. Insurance Advantages - Buildings that are equipped with certified fire shutters may benefit from lower insurance premiums. Insurers recognise certified products and this can often lead to cost savings.
