Our new F-Lab features a Fire Testing laboratory specialising in the development and testing of Tenmat’s cavity fire barriers and service penetration products. The lab features a calibrated indicative scale furnace that can simulate the pressures and temperatures experienced in real fire scenarios, reaching temperatures in excess of 1200 degrees centigrade. The F-Lab’s dedicated Training Academy provides detailed and comprehensive training programmes focusing on instructing participants on the correct installation of our cavity barriers and service penetration products. The Mayor was given a full tour of both sites, as well as touring our D-Lab and factory. In his opening ceremony speech, the Mayor said: “Visiting Tenmat’s facility and new labs today, it’s clear that this is a long-term investment which will only be good for Irlam and Greater Manchester as a whole. There’s not only the economic benefit that the investment brings, but a huge social benefit here as well. It's fantastic that some of these materials will be used in the construction of homes in Salford, improving their safety. The more we can encourage the uptake of this material, the more we can help prevent fires here and across the UK.” Tenmat CEO Kapil Chopra said: “It was an honour to welcome the Mayor to our site and celebrate this significant milestone for the company. With our expanding international headquarters based in Irlam we are continuing to invest in the Greater Manchester region and having the support of the Mayor in our endeavours means a great deal. We are very proud to be involved in making buildings throughout Greater Manchester and the UK safer; this new lab will enable us to do that on an even greater scale.” All of us at Tenmat would like to thank the Mayor and his team for attending this special event.

Our National Specification Manager, Adam Taylor, discusses the importance of engaging with passive fire protection suppliers as early as possible in construction design:   "Engaging with Tenmat at the early stages of project design is crucial. Specifications developed through the RIBA Plan of Work are vital for controlling construction quality. The Building Safety Act outlines key principles that must be reflected in specification development. "This act introduces requirements for information control at three project stages, including planning permission, building control approval, and completion certificate application. The specification plays a pivotal role in these stages, influencing design decisions and product selections. "Early-stage decisions can impact safety, durability, and fire integrity. Any amendments requiring approval or deemed 'notifiable' can have significant cost and time implications. Therefore, considering fire strategy decisions early on is essential to avoid project disruptions. "Combining our key manufacturing capabilities along with our unrivalled third party test evidence with a multitude of substrates and façade systems, your specification for Passive fire protection couldn't be in safer hands." #manufacturing #firesafety #specification #buildingsafety #architects #buildingdesign

𝗣𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀 - 𝗩𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗗𝘂𝗰𝘁 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝗹𝗲𝗲𝘃𝗲 𝗟𝗣 The Vent Duct Fire Sleeve Low Profiles (VDS LPs) are a family of CE Marked fire penetration seals designed to firestop PVC ventilation ducts/pipes when installed through fire-rated constructions. • The unique vacuum-formed intumescent material design ensures that the expansion direction of the material crushes and seals the ducting in a fire situation without the need for any additional support or metal sleeving. ☑️ • The lack of metal sleeving not only makes installation easy, it also limits the risk of heat transfer through the structure as well as allows compression to ensure a tight seal against fire and smoke or tight fitting against the ceiling soffit where needed. 🔥 • The Low Profile Vent Duct Fire Sleeves provide fire resistance ratings for Integrity (E) and Insulation (I) for up to EI120 minutes depending on the construction. 💪 Find out more on our website: https://lnkd.in/ddpBgW5C #passivefireprotection #science #engineering #constructionmaterials #buildingregulations #firesafety
