Frequently Answered
Questions
What manufacturing services do you provide?
Curtainwall Firestop systems have been evolved with time and there are quite a few systems offering this perimeter fire containment. More commonly the systems are divided into dry and wet systems. In today’s fast construction needs the dry system is opted more due to its flexibility of usage and fast installation.
In Dry System of Perimeter Barrier, FiroBlock is a made in India solution tested as per ASTM E2307 and is the world’s first IS 18190 certified system. With a Production capacity of over 1000 m2 a week and backed by Super Creations which has over two decades of industry experience providing interior and exterior solutions, FiroBlock offers a reliable and tested Curtainwall Firestop in India.
What types of products can you manufacture?
The Curtainwalls are supported by slab of the building with bracket system; these often leave a gap between the curtainwall and the concrete slab. These gaps are also left for workability and for curtainwall to allow deflection in its life due to wind and other factors.
These Gaps act like a chimney for fire and smoke to propagate from one floor to another and eventually leaving the whole building at risk. Additional to this, the spandrel zone formed at the interface of slab and curtainwall is also a critical place for fire, due to the leap frogging effect which is fire breaking the glass and trying to jump to the next floor.
So, to contain this fire from propagating we shall use a Tested perimeter barrier system like FIROBLOCK which is rated for 2 hrs in F & T-rating. This sytem contains fire from reaching to the adjacent floors and ensures safe evacuation for occupants in the building.
How do you maintain quality throughout production?
Can you manage low and high-volume production?
For Firestopping in curtainwalls the material used should be enough flexible so that it does not leave gaps when the façade undergoes movement during its life time.
More importantly it should tested for at least 2 hrs as per relevant standards like IS 18190, ASTM E2307 and EN 1364-4 etc., where it is tested as a system not an individual product, simulating the real world scenario of the building .
