Today, fire-rated glazed partitions have become a standard in interior design. Architects incorporate them as an option of choice both in modern office spaces and in classical interior designs.

Satin fire-resistant glass – a novelty in the POLFLAM product range

Satin glass is characterised by its delicate matte finish producing a translucent effect. Developing our new POLFLAM product, we have successfully implemented new solutions to overcome technological barriers. The satinated side of the glass panel faces the inside of the glazing unit and is in contact with the fire-resistant hydrogel interlayer. Therefore, it is not exposed to dirt or to potential scratching.

Modern Glass Partitions at “Świata Szkła” Conference

In June, specialists from POLFLAM took part in the conference “Modern Glass Partitions – Key to Building Comfort”, which had been organised by the editors of “Świat Szkła” (Glass World) monthly magazine.

The conference served as an exchange forum for expert knowledge of standardisation regulations regarding the use of internal glazing in buildings. One of the topics discussed was fire resistance testing and classification of glazed partition walls.

FIRE ACADEMY

With the pandemic-related restrictions being lifted, we are gradually relaunching our training activities – in Poland and abroad. More and more dates are being fixed for events that had to be postponed.

Last autumn, the FIRE ACADEMY 2019 training sessions took place in Ghent, Brussels and Liège, organised by the Belgian branch of ALUPROF in cooperation with POLFLAM. At this event, specialists from these two companies and representatives from key Belgian building trade institutions – ISIB, AGORIA, WTCB and Fire Forum – discussed fire safety in the construction industry with a focus on fire-resistant glazing.

POLFLAM F glass for ceilings – a true bestseller

Ceilings are undoubtedly one of the most difficult challenges which the manufacturer of fire resistant glass faces.

POLFLAM F glass has a load-bearing capacity of up to 5 kN / m2. It is available in three fire resistance classes: REI 30, 45 and 60. Therefore, in the event of fire, it ensures complete safety of evacuation within the time limit required by law – 30, 45 or 60 min.
