Passive Fire Protection Products & Materials
MEET THE BUILDING CODE THE SMART WAY
TENMAT fire rated enclosures and additional Passive Fire Protection products have been designed to meet the building code and to help maintain the integrity of fire-resistance rated ceilings when penetrated by recessed lights, LED luminaires, fluorescent fixtures or in-ceiling loudspeakers or walls when penetrated by wires, cables, pipes or mixed penetrations.
“Where floor/ceiling assemblies are required to have a fire-resistance rating, recessed fixtures shall be installed such that the required fire resistance will not be reduced.”
Municipalities across the United States require fire-resistance rated ceilings, floors and walls for multi-story residential structures such as apartment buildings, student housing, schools, hospitals or hotels. The 2015
version of the International Building Code (IBC) addresses this issue explicitly in section 714.4.2
The only flexible fire-resistant enclosure for recessed light fixtures, LED luminaires, in-ceiling speakers, troffers, luminaires and fluorescent lights
Fire tested and approved for a variety of listed systems in ceilings and walls. All Tenmat passive fire protection products have undergone stringent fire testing by independent third party testing labs such as UL & Intertek.
TENMAT Fire Rated Light Covers are manufactured to the highest quality standards and can be used with a wide range of recessed light models from various manufacturers.
Our firebox for recessed lighting and downlights acts as a fire barrier, but also serves as a thermal insulator, significantly reducing airflow and heat loss through the recessed light fixture.
We also offer firestopping foams, sealants, blocks and plugs, along with specialty products, such as fire rated cavity barriers, door strips, joint seals and intumescent sheets.
