New Article:
Hey there! Exciting news for our crew - we got shortlisted for the ASFP's Best Installation Project Award due to our collaborative effort with Greene Fire on an epic project down under.This prestigious award recognizes the top installation job, as agreed by a clever panel of experts.
So, what makes the ASFP, also known as the UK's leading fire protection trade association, so awesome? Founded in 1975, they unite manufacturers, contractors, and testing/certification companies to improve standards in fire protection. They're all about spreading fire safety awareness and supporting the fire industry in all its forms.
The joint venture with Greene Fire resulted in a bespoke FireMaster Concertina fire curtain for an intricate atria with two circular openings, bridge-like walkways, and all the complications that come with it. We take pride in partnering with our distributor buddies and customers globally to make dream building designs a reality while meeting local fire safety regulations.
Greene Fire's skilled installers handled this tricky project like pros, ensuring the fire curtain looks subtle when closed but provides robust fire protection when deployed. The massive engineered fire curtain showcases the exceptional collaboration between our company and Greene Fire to deliver passive fire safety solutions for complex buildings.
The building itself has been showered with accolades:
- 2020 Australian Institute of Architects, Victorian Chapter The Henry Bastow Award for Educational Architecture
- 2020 Australian Institute of Architects, Victorian Chapter Interior Architecture Award
- 2020 Australian Institute of Architects, Victorian Chapter Colorbond Award for Steel Architecture
