Key Features of a Cavity Fire Barrier System

To prevent the rapid spread of fire and smoke, a cavity fire barrier system works by compartmentalising areas of your property, especially unused concealed voids in walls, attic voids, floors and ceilings.

Cavity fire barriers are useful to maintain fire compartmentation across a wide range of use cases such as cavity fire barriers for attics and cavity barriers above suspended ceilings, to maintain separation of the buildings compartment lines at 20 meter centres, as required by Building Regulations and Approved Document B.

Installing passive fire protection systems like the cavity fire barrier system with Flux Fire comes with benefits including:

Prevents the spread of fire

Comply with building regulations

Low maintenance

Protects the structural integrity of the building

Cavity Fire Barrier FAQs

Cavity fire barriers should be installed anywhere in your property, where concealed spaces may act as a conduit for fire and smoke to spread. These include: 

  • Floor Cavities – Between floors in multi-level buildings.
  • Roof Cavities – Prevent spread of fire across roof space.
  • Wall Partitions and Cavities – Both internal and external walls.
  • Service Voids – Spaces that contain elements such as pipes, ducts and cables.
  • Openings – Areas such as windows and doors.

There are cavity fire barriers to suit a variety of requirements, spaces and budgets. They are made of a number of materials, such as aluminium and glass fibre (woven and non-woven). These materials are then treated to increase integrity and insulation.

Cavity Fire Barriers are an effective method of passive fire protection. Systems like this have a number of benefits, such as: 

  • Slowed Fire Spread – By compartmentalising areas of a property, the spread of fire is significantly reduced. Integrity and insulation lengths vary depending on materials chosen, however even budget options significantly slow the spread of fire. 
  • Slowed Smoke Spread – While fire may be the most damaging to a property itself, smoke poses significant threat to the safety of people. As well as slowing flames, cavity fire barriers slow hazardous smoke. 
  • Versatility – Cavity fire barriers come in a wide range of specifications, with materials being suitable for multiple different areas.
  • Compliment Other Protection Systems – When partnered with other passive fire protection systems, cavity fire barriers safeguard the harder-to-reach areas of a property.
