Discovering the Benefits of DuraWall Panels

When it comes to protecting your facility from fire, you need the right panels. Ideally, your panels can resist both thermal transmission and sound. When the panels prevent thermal transmission, you won’t have to worry about the fire spreading from one area to the next due to combustibles next to the wall. That’s why DuraWall is a great option for many facilities.

What Are DuraWall Panels?

The DuraWall system consists of a composite panel faced in painted or galvanized steel with a high-density mineral fiber core that is non-combustible. The edges of the panel fit together easily using an interlocking male-female joint. When you are looking for a fire-resistant panel system, you want to make sure that it is UL/ULC or ETL listed. The good news is that the DuraWall panels have a fire rating of up to two hours. You can use them for any fire separations that are non-load bearing.

Excellent Protection

The right fire rated panels will offer good protection against fire in your facility. When you are looking for the best product, you’ll benefit from having two hours of protection. Because the fire resistant materials are superior and have many safety characteristics, you can increase workplace safety at your building.To read more visit source.

Protecting Grease Ducts From Fire

  Owners and operators of commercial kitchens have a lot of responsibility. Not only do they need to create the right atmosphere and menu for customers but also ensure their safety, as well as the safety of their employees. In particular, they need to take the appropriate steps to prevent fires, and when they do occur, prevent them from spreading. This is where a well-designed  grease duct  system helps. For any commercial kitchen that utilizes boilers, fryers, ovens, stoves, and other grease-producing appliances, extra precaution is critical. Another challenge is that many of these kitchens have more than one hood connected to a sole exhaust fan as part of the overall grease duct system. However, there’s yet another concern. A traditional system doesn’t always fit the space. That, combined with poorly located access doors for cleaning and maintenance, and the risk of a fire increases significantly. In these situations, some operators may take shortcuts or bypass cleaning the system al

How an Ideal Fire-Resistant Panel Performs in a Fire

  In the past, large fires in important buildings caused a higher level of scrutiny in safety codes like the International Building Code (IBC). While these changes occurred in countries like the US, there is still something that you can learn from the injuries and loss of property others have suffered. Using a product such as the  DuraWall™  can help your company to better protect your property against fire. Fire Codes and Your Panels Some people mistakenly believe that the tested assembly represents all installed configurations. As  fire rated  walls are tested as flat assemblies, with a minimum 100 square test sample, that rarely matches what is actually required for a project. How many walls do not have a change of direction, like a corner, or a passage door somewhere? This is where manufacturers and engineers come together to develop the specific construction details for these common, but not always tested, wall configurations. Different wall constructions can vary quite a bit beca
