Structural Steel Protection
DDF FIRE LTD
Why Protect Structural Steel?
Steel loses strength rapidly at high temperatures — at around 550°C, it can lose about 50% of its strength.
In a fire, unprotected steel structures can collapse within minutes.
UK building regulations (like Approved Document B) require fire protection to meet specific fire resistance periods (30, 60, 90, or 120 minutes depending on building type/use).
As a third-party accredited specialist holding IFC Certification and operating to rigorous ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 standards, you can trust DDF Fire Ltd to deliver full compliance.
