Specialised Passive Fire Protection Services
We have extensive experience in passive fire protection, especially in new commercial buildings across Canterbury. A key focus of our work has been cool store facilities, which require tailored fire protection solutions.
Cool stores come with unique challenges due to their reliance on large refrigeration systems and potential risks involving chemical reactions during a fire. These specialised setups demand a different approach compared to standard commercial buildings.
Our ongoing work with cool stores has allowed us to develop effective, industry-compliant solutions for these environments. This specialised knowledge ensures our clients receive reliable, tailored fire protection for their specific needs.
How We Secure Building Firewalls
A key part of our work is securing internal building firewalls in commercial properties. For example, consider a firewall designed to protect a Motor Control Centre (MCC) from an adjacent high-power refrigeration room.
During construction, ducts and power cables often pass through the firewall, leaving gaps that can weaken its ability to stop fire and smoke. TekSeal steps in to seal these gaps using certified fire-rated systems, providing up to 4 hours of protection.
Our precise installations ensure the firewall performs as designed, safeguarding critical areas and meeting or exceeding industry safety standards.
Importance of Passive Fire Protection
Passive fire protection is critical for containing fire and smoke, safeguarding lives, protecting assets, and maintaining a building’s structural integrity.
The Role of Fire Barriers
Fire barriers and separations are key to slowing the spread of fire. They provide valuable time for evacuation and emergency response, acting as the first line of defence in a building’s fire safety strategy.
Designing Effective Fire Barriers
Creating fire barriers requires careful consideration of factors like product type, penetration size, substrate material, and orientation. Each element must be planned and documented meticulously to ensure effectiveness.
Ensuring Proper Installation
A fire protection system is only as good as its installation. Minor mistakes can compromise safety, so rigorous attention to detail is essential during the installation process.

At TekSeal, we understand the importance of passive fire protection. Every system we design and install prioritises safety and reliability, ensuring that buildings and their occupants are protected.
