UL Fire Stop Penetration Are team members are certified through UL and are dedicated to the inspection and maintenance of life-safety firestop systems and effective compartmentation barriers.
When firestop products are installed to the Manufacturer’s installation instructions and tested and listed system specs, the installation and inspection services result in an installed firestop or fire-resistance-rated SYSTEM. These fire-resistance-rated or smoke-resistant assemblies play a big role in Building Resilience.
Firestopping, when included as part of fire-resistance-rated or smoke-resistant assemblies, provides:
protection against the spread of fire and smoke within a building and from building to building;
life-safety protection for building occupants during emergency egress, including those that must be “defended in place”; increased protection of property from fire and smoke damage; and continuity of operations of the structure after a fire event.
