Mann McGowan’s intumescent fire-resistant door seals

Mann McGowan’s range of innovative fire protection solutions ensures your building meets the highest safety and fire certification standards.

  1. Intumescent Strips for Fire Doors: Fire doors are essential in containing the spread of fire and smoke. Mann McGowan’s intumescent strips expand under heat, creating a secure barrier that protects escape routes and limits property damage.
  2. Intumescent Seals for Fire-Safety Glass: Designed to work with Pyroguard’s fire-rated glass, Mann McGowan’s intumescent seals ensure a perfect fit and maximum fire resistance, helping to maintain the integrity and insulation of glazing systems.
  3. Fire-Stopping Products for Structural Gaps: Mann McGowan’s fire-stopping solutions, including expansion joints and seals, provide reliable protection for larger structural openings. These products are key to ensuring the containment of fire and smoke across multiple areas of a building.
  4. Acoustic and Smoke Seals: Combining fire resistance with soundproofing, Mann McGowan’s seals meet the demands of modern construction, offering dual protection for fire doors and glazed systems.
