Fire Curtain

Ana Sayfa What is a Fire Curtain? A fire curtain is an active fire protection barrier manufactured from fire-resistant technical fabric, designed to prevent the uncontrolled spread of flames, heat, and smoke throughout a building during a fire. Restricts the spread of flames and hot gases during a fire. Prevents fire from spreading to different compartments within the building. Protects escape routes and safe areas from fire. Enhances life safety by supporting fire compartmentation. Key Features: A fire curtain deploys automatically from the ceiling when activated by the fire detection system, creating a fire-resistant barrier. Its multi-layer technical fabric is designed to withstand high temperatures, limiting both flame penetration and heat transfer. Fire curtains are typically tested in accordance with EN 1634-1 and classified under EN 13501-2. Depending on project requirements, they can be designed to provide 30, 60, 90, or 120 minutes of fire resistance. They are widely used to create fire compartments, protect escape routes, and provide valuable time for safe evacuation and firefighting operations. Fire curtains compartmentalize fire, ensuring safe evacuation.
