Fire-stopping products for Home Insulation Schemes
Tenmat is a leading UK manufacturer of passive fire protection solutions and fire-stopping products. We offer a wide range of products that help maintain the safety of public, private and commercial buildings.
In order to help the nation cut their energy usage and bring down their heating bills the Government has recently announced a new £1bn scheme to help people throughout the country insulate their homes. We offer a range of solutions for installers carrying out measures under the ECO+ Scheme, for example, the FF130 Loft Covers, a Downlight Protection Cover that meets installation requirements to prevent the overheating of downlights when installed below loft insulations.
Products that are specifically designed and tested
Energy saving and fire protection are often seen as separate components when home insulation is being upgraded, however, both of these outcomes can be achieved with a range of specifically designed and tested products from Tenmat.
Passive Fire Protection for Home Insulation Schemes
Significantly reduces loss
of heat
Every one of Tenmat’s fire protection and energy-saving products is manufactured using non-combustible stone mineral wool as the base material and therefore each has excellent thermal insulation properties which significantly reduce losses of heat due to conduction. In addition to offering improved thermal performance, all of the Tenmat products dramatically reduce the amount of air leakage through ceilings and walls, (up to 94% reduction) when compared to not using Tenmat products.
