Firestop Compound is used to provide a fire rated seal around service penetrations in fire rated walls and floors.

Tested in accordance with BS 476:Part 22, our Firestop Compound provides up to 4 hours Fire Protection.

Our Firestop Compound will provide up to 51dB Weighted Sound Reduction Inde.

Our Firestop Compound is a specially formulated gypsum based mortar, which is mixed with water to be trowelled or poured around service penetrations. Plastic pipework must be protected with our Firestop Collars.

In floors,  permanent shutter panel (50mm) (or similar formwork) is cut and friction fitted between services and the edges of the floor slab. Firestop Compound is then troweled over the shutter to a depth of 25mm thick. This is allowed to harden. The Firestop Compound is then mixed to a pouring grade and tops the seal up to the required depth.

In walls, our Firestop Compound is mixed into a stiff consistency for troweling into smaller openings. In larger openings, our Firestop Compound can be cast into blocks which can be built into walls.

The coverage does not take into account the percentage of the hole filled with services.
