We Understand Your Challenges
We know that as a firestopping contractor, you’re the very last link in the chain. By the time you arrive on site, the designs have been agreed and the penetrations are already in place - leaving you to make it work.
-
Design vs Reality
What’s drawn in the office doesn’t always match what’s installed on site. M&E services might be routed differently, and even a small variation can create issues. A solution that looks compliant on paper can be much harder to achieve in practice, leaving you with the responsibility to find a way forward.
-
Tight Programmes
Firestopping usually comes last, meaning you’re squeezed by delays earlier in the programme. Other trades must finish before you can start, but their slippages eat into your time. You’re then expected to deliver quality installations under extreme time pressure.
-
Compliance Responsibility
Fire safety compliance is shared across everyone involved in creating compartmentation, from the main contractor to the principal designer and every trade in between. But as the firestopping installer, you’re the one applying the finishing detail, often in less-than-ideal conditions, and that can feel like a heavy responsibility.
Simplifying Installation & Compliance
Firestopping contractors need reliable solutions that work first time. We support you with tested systems and clear resources that make it easier to get the job done, even when site conditions are demanding.
With our extensive library of tested details, the QuelSelector tool, and straightforward installation guides and datasheets, you have quick access to the right information. Backed by responsive technical support, we help you keep projects moving, reduce uncertainty, and deliver compliant installations with confidence.
