Certified fire stopping delivered under pressure to protect specialist laboratory spaces.
LH-plc, a leading provider of air conditioning, chiller, and compressor services, undertook a project to repurpose a building within a scientific facility to create lab areas for the client’s scientific team. The refurbishment involved extensive renovations, including the removal of ceilings and rerouting of pipework and cabling, leading to breaches in the walls necessitating fire stopping solutions.
To address the challenges presented by the refurbishment, LH-plc collaborated with EA-RS Passive to assess the breaches on-site and develop a tailored scope of works and quotation. Commencing in January 2024, the fire stopping works were carried out in accordance with industry standards and project requirements.
The fire stopping team, using certified materials, and following third-party accreditation LPS 1531 for passive fire protection installation, effectively sealed cable trays, void areas, and pipework. Despite tight deadlines due to the impending handover of the building, the project was completed successfully, with the team working around newly erected ceilings to ensure compliance and safety.
