Passive Fireproofing – Internal/External Application
Product Description
The Vermibloc® system comprises a composite cementitious system which if necessary, is combined with a steel protective sleeve assembly, factory prepared and ready for installation around services requiring protection.
Effective Fireproofing
A steel element is bonded to the Vermibloc® cementitious component ensuring perimeter protection to the assembly and at the same time to allow for the assembly to be dismantled for inspection/maintenance purposes. The thickness of the fireproofing system is determined from the manufacturer's schedules for the various fire resistance periods and element sizes.
