Correct installation of fire protection products is vital if they
are to perform as intended and provide the specified fire
performance. Incorrect product selection and poor
installation can lead to system failure in a fire situation and
potential loss of life, property, stock and business
interruption, as well as, the inability to obtain insurance
cover in future.
To be effective in preventing or controlling the spread of
fire, or for protection of structural elements from the
effects of fire, these products need to be installed correctly
in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions within
their approved field of application. Failure to do so can
compromise fire performance with consequences for life
safety, property and commercial risk.
Our installer certification schemes together with our
product certification provides a robust system that gives
confidence to specifiers, contractors, enforcement
authorities, regulators, and end users that proven products,
together with correct installation, will achieve the required
level of fire performance.
The IFC Certification Quality Mark enables installer
companies to demonstrate the superiority of their
installations.
The following is an indication of some of the wideranging certification schemes currently available:
Residential sprinkler systems
Commercial & industrial sprinkler systems
Fire resistant timber doors
Dry & wet riser systems
Penetration and linear gap seals
Cavity barriers
Smoke control systems
