Firestopping

Condition-led firestop supply and installation for mechanical, electrical and mixed-service openings through rated walls and floors.

Technical scope

Tested through-penetration firestops for Saudi industrial, commercial and infrastructure projects.

Vortexen coordinates conditioned penetration firestops across Saudi Arabia, ensuring that MEP openings in fire-rated walls and floor slabs maintain compartment integrity.

Assemblies are selected from certified UL/FM listed configurations, matching the actual pipe, cable, busway, and wall substrate conditions to avoid project rejection.

Each penetration is scheduled, tagged, and recorded in digital close-out registers for consultant and Civil Defence handover across Riyadh, Jeddah, and Eastern Province sites.

Saudi Arabia Compliance & Authority Pathway:Complies with SBC 801 penetration firestop requirements and Salamah portal inspection documentation criteria.
