About Handling & Maintenance

Fireproofing is critical for the protection of life and property. To ensure continued operation in case of a fire, fireproofing systems need to be treated with the utmost respect.

With the stress of day to day operations and maintenance, fireproofing often takes a back seat to other priorities. Knowledgeable personnel may get transferred and new personnel may not be acquainted with the fire protection system, thus creating a potentially dangerous situation if the upkeep of the fire protection system has been neglected.

Regular in house or third party inspections of the fire protection systems with the appropriate reporting system in place, is a proven method of providing support for critical plant services. Site repairs for small defects can be made by in house maintenance crews. For major repairs Thermal Designs should be contacted for help and advice.
