Integra provides specialist fire stopping solutions designed to maintain fire compartmentation and help prevent the spread of fire and smoke through a building. Effective fire stopping is a critical part of passive fire protection, protecting escape routes, supporting building safety and helping organisations meet their fire protection responsibilities. Our services include fire stopping surveys, installation, inspections and remediation works across commercial, industrial, residential and public sector buildings.
Fire stopping is a passive fire protection measure designed to maintain the integrity of fire-resistant compartments within a building. When walls, floors and other fire-resistant barriers are penetrated by cables, pipes, ducts or other services, suitable fire stopping solutions are required to maintain protection and reduce the risk of fire and smoke spreading. Integra helps organisations identify issues, implement appropriate solutions and maintain effective fire protection measures.
Professionally installed fire stopping helps: Slow the spread of fire and smoke, protect occupants and emergency escape routes, reduce damage to buildings and assets, improve business continuity, support compliance with UK fire safety legislation, maintain the fire integrity of compartment walls and floors
Fire compartmentation helps divide a building into protected areas designed to slow the spread of fire and smoke. Integra provides specialist support to identify compartmentation concerns and implement appropriate fire stopping solutions to maintain the intended performance of building structures.
Service penetrations are a common area where fire protection can be compromised. Integra provides specialist penetration sealing solutions for services including cables, pipes and other building penetrations, helping restore the fire resistance of walls and floors. We install certified fire stopping systems around service penetrations, including:
Fire batt systems provide effective protection around larger service openings while allowing future modifications without compromising fire performance.
We install tested fire-rated acrylic and silicone sealants to maintain compartmentation around construction joints and service penetrations.
Fire collars and intumescent pipe wraps are installed around combustible pipework to prevent the spread of fire when plastic pipes soften during a fire.
Movement joints within walls and floors require specialist fire-resistant systems that maintain fire integrity while allowing structural movement.
We install cavity barriers within concealed spaces such as roof voids, external wall cavities, ceiling voids, and raised floors to prevent unseen fire spread.
Where existing fire stopping arrangements are unknown, damaged or suspected to be inadequate, Integra can assess current conditions and identify required improvements. Where issues are identified, our remediation services provide practical solutions to restore effective passive fire protection.
Choosing the right passive fire protection contractor is essential for achieving compliance and protecting your building.

Our team works closely with contractors, building owners, facilities managers, developers, architects, housing providers, and public sector organisations to deliver fire stopping solutions that meet current legislation and industry best practice.
We provide fire stopping services across a wide range of industries, including:
Fire compartmentation is one of the most effective ways to control the spread of fire within a building. Fire-rated walls and floors divide buildings into smaller compartments, helping to contain fire for a specified period.
However, every service penetration creates a potential weakness. Without professionally installed fire stopping, flames, smoke, and hot gases can spread rapidly through these openings, putting lives at risk and increasing property damage.
Our fire stopping solutions restore compartmentation, ensuring your building performs as intended during a fire.
Assessment: We review existing fire stopping arrangements, identify concerns and understand the requirements of the building. Recommendation: We provide clear recommendations based on identified issues and the appropriate fire protection requirements. Installation: Our specialist team completes fire stopping works using suitable solutions for the application. Verification: Following completion, we provide supporting information and records relating to the works undertaken.
Our installations are completed using tested fire stopping systems and are carried out in accordance with relevant UK legislation, manufacturer guidance, and recognised industry standards.
We understand the importance of compliance and provide clear documentation to support building owners, contractors, and duty holders in meeting their fire safety responsibilities.
Whether you're constructing a new commercial development or refurbishing an existing building, fire stopping should form an essential part of your passive fire protection strategy.
We work alongside principal contractors, M&E contractors, and project teams to ensure every service penetration is correctly protected before project completion.
We also carry out remedial fire stopping where previous installations have been damaged, altered, or incorrectly installed.
Fire stopping seals gaps and service penetrations within fire-rated walls and floors, preventing the spread of fire and smoke between compartments.
Fire stopping forms an important part of complying with UK Building Regulations and fire safety legislation. Building owners and responsible persons have a duty to maintain effective fire compartmentation.
