Nullifire is excited to announce the launch of A Guide to Specification and Design for Firestopping.
Over the last couple of months our Technical Manager Hannah Eyres alongside National Specifications Manager Aaron Gardiner have galvanised the experience of the whole Nullifire team and pulled together critical elements of the Fire Stopping design journey, in a bid to simplify the process for our Architect, Specifier, Designer and Contractor clients.
Over the last few years there have been many changes in Building Regulations as well as standards. As such the topic of designing Fire Stopping Solutions can be open to subjective interpretation and misunderstanding. This can lead to costly and potentially dangerous mistakes.
Hannah Eyres says “Frankly it can be overwhelming. It’s such a complex landscape and we really need to simplify the process for our clients as much as possible, helping them to assimilate all the information. We get so many enquiries on a weekly basis and this Guide should help dispel some of the myths, help to navigate the design process, act as a step by step guide as well as a prompt to consider other relevant factors. The aim, being a smoother more comprehensible process for everyone involved.”
Aaron Gardiner National Specification Manager for Nullifire states that “this guide is exactly that – a comprehensive go to guide for all points of consideration, providing an insight on services and material types as well as standards for multiple services and test requirements. Our Technical team will always be on hand for any more complex queries re details and testing.”
At Nullifire ensuring our clients have the correct information is of paramount importance – mistakes can be catastrophic, with lives at stake and remedial work costing thousands of pounds, plus potential voidance of insurance.
“This Guide is just one more step towards improving our client experience for Nullifire – already we have the Nullifinder product finder online and version 2 is in development,” says Lisa Trafford, Brand and Communications Manager.
