Fire Protection Curtain FlexFire

Space-Saving Textile Fire Protection - Fire Protection Curtain FlexFire Hörmann expands its fire protection programme to include the textile fire protection curtain FlexFire made of glass filament fabric, which is particularly suitable for buildings where little space is available above or to the side of the opening. The curtain achieves fire resistance class E 120. Hörmann offers a large portfolio of fire protection products, ranging from steel and stainless steel doors, tubular frame parts made of steel or aluminium, fully glazed system walls and fire sliding doors. From July 2019, Hörmann will be expanding this range to include textile fire protection curtains for large openings, and specifically for fitting situations that do not have sufficient storage space above or to the side of the opening, such as would be required for a sliding door. The FlexFire textile fire protection curtain is only 0.5 millimetres thick and is particularly suitable for objects such as hotels, public buildings, offices or department stores. It is available up to fire resistance class E120. Particularly sophisticated side guides ensure that the textile fire protection curtain remains inconspicuous. The FlexFire is operated using a hold-open device in accordance with EN 14637. Visual smoke sensors monitor the door area and ensure reliable closing of the curtain if smoke is detected. The control unit can also be connected to the fire alarm system on-site. The textile curtain is available in dimensions of up to 5 x 5 metres and consists of glass filament fabric reinforced with V4A wire. Larger dimensions are also possible with case-by-case approval. In the event of a fire, the fire protection curtain closes within only 4 seconds per metre. ift Rosenheim has issued an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for the FlexFire in accordance with ISO 14025, permitting the use of the fire protection curtain in certified sustainable buildings.
