State-standard sustainable fire-resistant insulation

Ensuring fire safety is the responsibility of every resident.

In a period of robust national infrastructure development, high-rise residential buildings, condominiums, and commercial structures are being increasingly invested in, resulting in greater potential risks of fire hazards that threaten both lives and property. As a result, the implementation of fire prevention and safety measures in construction projects has gained significant attention.

In recent years, the state has consistently improved regulations to ensure fire safety for construction projects, safeguarding citizens and business assets. Notable examples include:

• QCVN 06:2021/BXD: National technical standards for Fire Safety for Buildings and Structures.
• Decree No. 136/2020/NĐ-CP: Government regulations detailing certain provisions and measures for implementing the Fire Prevention and Firefighting Law, as well as the amended provisions of the Fire Prevention and Firefighting Law.

These new regulations have posed challenges for businesses operating in the construction and fire-resistant materials supply sectors. However, they also present opportunities for substantial development, enabling the nation to enhance its construction infrastructure with superior fire-resistant capabilities.

Furthermore, according to the Fire Prevention and Firefighting Law No. 27/2001/QH10, the primary focus of firefighting activities is prevention. Hence, citizens also have the responsibility to adhere to regulations for fire protection, actively practicing preventive measures and minimizing potential fire causes. All firefighting activities prioritize on-site firefighting forces and resources as the first response plan.

Pursuing Standard Fire-Resistant and Thermal Insulation Solutions

Standard fire-resistant and thermal insulation solutions are becoming increasingly recognized in construction projects and residences. Businesses are becoming more discerning in selecting solutions that can rectify previous building material weaknesses while meeting state verification standards. Some notable fire-resistant and thermal insulation solutions include:

• Fire-resistant duct solutions and fire shut-off valves in building ventilation systems.
• Fire barrier door solutions, including fire-resistant wood doors, fire-resistant steel doors, fire-resistant roller doors, fire-resistant elevator doors, etc.
• Structural column protection and beam protection solutions in fire-resistant steel structures.
• Fire-resistant partition wall solutions.

In fire-resistant and thermal insulation solutions, fire resistance is significantly affected by the quality of fire-resistant materials used during production. The use of high-quality fire-resistant materials contributes to the effectiveness of fire-resistant and thermal insulation solutions in ensuring safety.
