What is Passive Fire?

Passive fire protection refers to the systems and materials used to contain and restrict the spread of fire within a building. Unlike active fire protection measures, such as fire alarms and sprinkler systems, passive fire protection aims to compartmentalise the building and slow down the progression of fire, allowing occupants more time to evacuate safely and reducing property damage.

Passive Fire protection measures involve the construction and installation of fire-resistant barriers and systems that act as physical barriers to contain fire and smoke.
