Zeus Lite fire barriers from TBA Protective Technologies safeguard ceiling spaces across Wakefield food warehouse

Buildings.

A new distribution warehouse in Wakefield is employing Zeus Lite 90:30 from the TBA Firefly range to create vertical fire barriers at intervals within the roofspace across the footprint of the building. The 15,300-square-metre facility was constructed by GF Tomlinson for the Kitwave Group. Subcontractor Nottingham Suspended Ceilings undertook installation of the Zeus Lite and is well experienced with the performance and user-friendly characteristics of the Firefly range. The site agent for Nottingham Suspended Ceilings Mark Prescott commented, “We have now completed the installation of the fire barriers up to roof level in dozens of locations across the building.”

Firefly Zeus Lite is ideally suited to this type of application, comprising a flexible, woven fabric fire barrier that has been specifically developed for the vertical separation and compartmentation of extensive concealed spaces within buildings. By offering 90 minutes integrity and 30 minutes insulation, Firefly Zeus Lite 90:30 exceeds the minimum requirements regarding fire barriers under the Building Regulations’ Approved Document B (Fire Safety).  The specially treated glassfibre fabric is strong, resilient and flexible. Crucially, the system’s certification covers the inclusion of service penetrations, which many alternative products do not.
