STARC Systems Adds a Rated Ceiling to FireblockWall

STARC Systems’ one-hour fire-rated system, FireblockWall, now offers a ceiling to create a fully fire-rated enclosure. Facility managers and contractors no longer have to go through the hassle of building through the spaghetti in the ceiling or a soffit that extends to the deck during renovations in occupied healthcare environments.

In 2021, STARC introduced FireblockWall, the first modular, reusable one-hour fire-rated temporary containment system. Benefits of FireblockWall include that it effectively stops fires, installs four times faster than drywall, has superior noise-blocking, meets NFPA 101 or IBC code, meets ICRA Class IV & V standards, exceeds ASTM E119 and ASTM E84 requirements, is cost effective, results in lower carbon footprint and easy air management.
