      What exactly is fire-rated glazing, and how does it differ from regular glass in terms of providing protection against fire and smoke spread in buildings?

      Fire-rated glazing is a type of specially engineered glass designed to withstand high temperatures and prevent the spread of fire and smoke between spaces. What Is Fire Rated Glazing helps people understand that, unlike standard glass, this material is tested to maintain its integrity for a specific period during a fire, providing crucial time for safe evacuation. It is commonly used in doors, partitions, and windows in commercial and residential buildings to enhance safety. Proper installation and compliance with relevant standards ensure that fire-rated glazing performs effectively, protecting both occupants and property.
