Application > Ceilings & Floors

Promat carries a wide range of fire rated ceiling and floor systems with fire resistance of up to 240 minutes. Generally, PROMATECT® ceiling and floor systems provide horizontal fire barriers to prevent vertical spread of fire.

PROMATECT® ceiling and floor systems have been extensively tested and assessed to provide resistance to fire from above, below or above and below. They satisfy the integrity and insulation criteria of BS476: Parts 20, 21, 22 and 23: 1987 and/or AS 1530: Part 4. The flooring systems not only meet the integrity and insulation criteria but also meet the loadbearing capacity (structural adequacy) criteria of the British and Australian national standards.

General Design Considerations
Here are some of the factors which should be considered when determining the correct specification to ensure a ceiling or a floor system provides the required design performance under both fire and ambient conditions.

Supporting structure design	Non loadbearing ceilings	Loadbearing ceilings
Acoustics	Movement joint	Caulking & service penetrations
Light fittings	Access panels & hatches	Resistant to impact

Ceilings & Floors Category
The system design depends on performance requirements but in overall terms, ceiling and floor systems can be divided into:
