Lorient Fire Seals - Experts & Thought Leaders

Grilles are fitted into walls and some doors; and ductwork to keep fresh air circulating throughout a building. But wherever air moves, fire and smoke can travel too. In a fire, their intumescent grilles expand to form a solid block that stops fire spreading. Wherever ventilation is needed through a fire-resisting wall or where ductwork runs through that wall, an intumescent fire damper should be fitted at that point to maintain fire compartmentation. Smoke protection is also vital. They offer a range of intumescent grilles and dampers with an added smoke control shutter: their Talkback system. Maintaining fire compartmentation Lorient comprehensive range of dampers / air transfer grilles offers: Protection against fire and smoke at all temperatures Test evidence second to none Fire performance ratings from 30 minutes to in excess of 180 minutes Fully tested for smoke performance Products for all applications - doors, walls, ducts, floors & ceilings Low maintenance Co-ordinated with other Lorient products and ironmongery.
