90% firewall risk

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

ISD Solutions, a specialist in warehouse and firewall construction, has been successfully installing composite firewall systems to protect buildings and contents for over 15 years.

However, evidence suggests that some developers are unwittingly using materials that do not have LPS108 accreditation, so are below quality. More worryingly, ISD believes that up to 90% of warehouses have firewalls and compartmentation that may fail, given a real incident. 

The Loss Prevention Standard (LPS) ensures passive fire protection products are installed correctly. By selecting an LPS 1500 approved company, you can be sure that installers are appropriately trained and have the necessary expertise to design and install products that deliver your project’s fire protection requirements.
