Intumescent Fire Door Seal Strips and Sheet
Fire doors are one of the most important components in ensuring safe exit, isolation of the fire and saving lives. However a fire door assembly must be made of fire rated components must be used as per tested designs. Intumescent strips are the most important fire rated component in a fire doors. It helps stopping smoke and fire from spreading from the gaps in the edges of door shutter & frame joints, locks, handles, etc.
 
Intumescent strip works by sealing around the edges of a fire door in the event of a fire. The edges of a door are one of the most vulnerable when fire strikes, so intumescent strip is extremely important. Two main types are available - Fire Only or Fire & Smoke. Fire & Smoke seal has a brush pile or rubber fins, and these also provide protection against smoke by creating a physical barrier between the fire door and the frame.
