Overview of Fire Resistant Windows
Fire resistant windows are windows and doors that maintain a certain level of fire-resistant integrity. The fire resistant integrity is the ability to prevent the flame and heat from penetrating or appearing on the back of the window or door for a certain period of time when one side of the window or door is subjected to fire. Mainly used in high-rise buildings, each household refuge window, not only to meet all the performance of ordinary doors and windows, but also required to be able to maintain a certain degree of fire resistant integrity. GKBM produces fire-resistant window products are: aluminium fire resistant windows; uPVC fire resistant windows; aluminium-wood composite fire-resistant windows
Characteristics of Fire Resistant Windows
Good fire-resistant performance: This is the most important feature of fire-resistant windows. In the event of a fire, they can maintain integrity for a certain period of time, stop the spread of fire and smoke, and buy valuable time for personnel evacuation and fire rescue. Its fire-resistant performance is mainly achieved through the use of special materials and structural design, such as the use of fire-resistant glass, fire-retardant sealing tape, fire-resistant intumescent rods and so on.
Thermal insulation performance: Some of the fire-resistant windows adopt heat-insulating profiles such as bridge-breaking aluminium, which has good thermal insulation performance, can reduce the transfer of indoor and outdoor heat and reduce energy consumption.
Good airtightness and watertightness: Good airtightness and watertightness can effectively prevent the intrusion of rain, wind and sand, etc., and keep the interior dry and clean. It can also reduce the penetration of smoke and harmful gases in case of fire.
Aesthetically pleasing appearance: Fire resistant windows have a variety of appearance designs, which can be customised according to different architectural styles and needs to meet the aesthetic requirements of the building.
Application Scenarios of Fire Resistant Windows
High-rise buildings: For residential buildings with a building height of more than 54 metres, each household should have a room set up against the external wall, and the fire-resistant integrity of its external windows should not be less than 1 hour, so fire-resistant windows are widely used in high-rise buildings.
Public buildings: Such as schools, hospitals, shopping malls, airports, subways, stadiums, exhibition halls and other densely populated places, these places have higher fire safety requirements, the need to use fire-resistant windows to protect the lives and properties of personnel safety.
Industrial buildings: In some industrial plants, warehouses and other buildings with special fire protection requirements, fire-resistant windows are also essential fire protection facilities.
Fire resistant windows have gradually become an indispensable part of modern buildings by virtue of their excellent fireproof performance, heat and sound insulation effect and aesthetics. Whether in commercial buildings, industrial plants, residential buildings, or in public facilities such as medical institutions and schools, fire-resistant windows have shown their unique value.
