What Is Fire Stopping?

Fire stopping plays a crucial role in passive fire protection. It involves sealing gaps, penetrations, and voids within walls, floors, and ceilings to maintain fire-resistant compartmentation. When correctly installed, fire stopping systems:

  • Slow or stop the spread of fire and smoke

  • Protect escape routes and critical areas

  • Support compliance with Building Regulations and the Fire Safety Act

  • Reduce damage and improve overall building safety
