Expertise Across Every Environment
RECOM provides an end-to-end approach to passive fire protection, built around accuracy, compliance and clear accountability. Every project is delivered by accredited specialists and supported with full digital records through Bolster Systems, so you can see exactly what was installed, and where. From urgent remedials to large-scale installations and ongoing maintenance, we bring the same level of care and precision to every job. The result is fire protection that performs in practice, meets the highest standards, and gives you confidence that your building is ready for inspection.
“The quality of the fire-stopping installation is excellent, and we are confident that it will provide the necessary protection. We would highly recommend RECOM Solutions for any fire-stopping requirements and we continue to use them across our organisation.”
Passive Fire Protection refers to the range of materials and techniques designed to contain and slow the spread of fire and smoke within a building. Unlike active systems (such as sprinklers or alarms), PFP works continuously in the background, protecting escape routes, structural integrity, and lives.
PFP is critical for:
- Saving lives by giving occupants time to escape
- Protecting emergency services access routes
- Preserving the structural stability of buildings during fire
- Meeting UK building regulations and insurance requirements
- Reducing financial losses caused by fire damage
RECOM offers a full range of third-party accredited PFP services, including:
- Fire stopping and penetration sealing
- Compartmentation surveys and remediation
- Fire door installation, upgrades, and maintenance
- Structural steel fire protection (intumescent coatings)
- Fire barrier systems and cavity barriers
- Ongoing compliance and maintenance solutions
