Comprehensive Fire Protection Solutions
Activfire’s portfolio of services covers every critical component of passive fire safety:
Fire Doors
A key element of any fire safety system, fire doors are designed to resist the spread of flames and smoke. Activfire provides end-to-end services for both new and existing buildings, including detailed surveys, bespoke specifications, installation, testing, and long-term maintenance. Their expertise extends to listed and heritage properties, where fire safety must be balanced with preservation requirements.
Fire Curtains and Barriers
Fire curtains are essential for compartmentalising spaces, especially in modern open-plan designs or where physical barriers are limited. Activfire offers a full suite of curtain-related services, from initial inspection and design through to installation and certification, ensuring that both private and commercial buildings meet stringent fire containment standards.
Fire Stopping
One of the most vital yet overlooked areas of fire protection, fire stopping involves sealing penetrations and voids in fire-rated walls and floors to prevent the passage of fire and smoke. Activfire’s UK-wide team of trained installers specialises in a wide array of fire stopping solutions—such as fire-rated batts, mastic seals, pipe wraps, collars, and cavity barriers—ensuring that each building remains compliant with Part B of building regulations and the approved fire strategy.
Advanced Intumescent Coatings
In the event of a fire, structural elements must maintain integrity long enough to allow safe evacuation and firefighting efforts. Activfire offers industry-leading intumescent coating services for both steel and timber structures. These coatings are engineered to expand under high temperatures, forming an insulating layer that delays heat transfer and structural failure.
Steel Protection
As an approved applicator of the UK’s top intumescent coating brands, Activfire delivers solutions capable of achieving 30, 60, or even 120 minutes of fire resistance. Their coating applications are tested and verified onsite to meet third-party certification standards, ensuring a consistent and reliable level of protection.
Timber Coatings
For timber structures and cladding, Activfire uses “reactive paints” that swell to form a charred barrier in the event of fire, greatly reducing the burn rate. Their flagship product, Aithon PV33, combines aesthetics with function—offering a clear varnish finish under normal conditions that transforms into a protective barrier capable of withstanding temperatures above 1800°F for up to 60 minutes during a fire.
A Partner in Safety
Activfire’s commitment goes beyond installation. They provide continuous maintenance programs, certification support, and compliance consulting—ensuring that buildings remain protected and regulations are met year after year. Their holistic approach means clients receive not just a service, but a strategic partner in fire safety.
In an era where regulatory compliance and public safety are more scrutinized than ever, Activfire Ltd exemplifies the gold standard in passive fire protection. Their broad service offering, technical precision, and unwavering commitment to safety make them a trusted name in the industry—and a reassuring presence for property owners and developers alike.
