STARC Systems Launches 1st Modular Reusable 1-Hour Fire-Rated Temporary Containment Solution 

FireblockWall, the first modular reusable one-hour fire-rated temporary containment system, stops fires, installs 4 times faster than drywall and has superior noise-blocking — solving some of the biggest temporary containment challenges for contractors and facility managers working in occupied healthcare environments. Superior noise-blocking, with an STC rating of 40, it’s 65% quieter than any other temporary containment system.

FireblockWall exceeds ICRA Class IV (infection control), ASTM E119 and ASTM E84 requirements. The cost-effective, durable panels can be used job after job. Featuring a lower carbon footprint, the sleek, reusable walls save on waste and debris normally created by building and tearing down drywall. In addition, FireblockWall includes a negative air panel to discharge air, keeping dangerous dust off the ground, and automatically closes the damper when temperatures exceed 165 F. Also included is an air monitor panel compatible with all common manometers, and has a 2-inch rated pass-through for wiring.
