Fire compartmentation
Keeping fire contained and your employees safe
Fire compartmentation is a form of passive fire protection where your building is divided into fire-resistant compartments. This helps to contain a fire at source by delaying the spread of smoke, flames and toxic fumes long enough for your people to escape, and emergency services to respond.
Your commercial building’s fire compartmentation plays a key role in fire safety compliance. We are proudly BM-Trada Q-Mark certified for fire-stopping protection, and as your trusted passive fire protection partners, we’ll help ensure your commercial building meets legal requirements and keep your people safe from harm.

Fire compartmentation begins with your Fire Risk Assessment
Before your fire compartmentation is installed, we’ll carry out a professional survey to highlight any breaches in your fire safety compliance. Where required, we can also carry out or update your Fire Risk Assessment, and ensure your Fire Safety Evacuation Procedure (FEEP) is fully compliant.
Your FEEP will reveal where escape routes should be protected. This will help us take the right action on your fire compartmentation.
It goes without saying that your Fire Risk Assessment and FEEP should be carried out by experienced fire safety professionals. As fully-certified members of the Institute of Fire Safety Managers, our risk assessors can support you at every stage of this journey.
Fire safety starts with fire stopping
As an employer it’s your legal responsibility to maintain fire stopping measures to give your personnel the maximum possible protection. This means your fire stopping features, such as fire door systems, should never be compromised.
The CFP team have the experience and knowledge you need to maintain your fire compartmentation through effective fire stopping and breach fixes.
