Passive Fire Protection: The First Line of Defense

Passive fire protection contains fire and smoke within a limited area through built-in systems.

It includes fire-resistant walls, floors, doors, and sealed gaps that slow the spread of fire, thereby providing critical time for safe evacuation.

The Advancing Passive Fire Protection Conference is positioned as a national platform to address these systemic gaps. Bringing together policy leaders, fire service authorities, designers, certification bodies, contractors, asset owners, and facility managers, the conference focuses on one objective.
