Feature article in tab: Focus on fire dampers containing asbestos

Fire dampers containing asbestos in existing buildings present particular challenges for operators, designers and maintenance companies. The professional assessment of suspected asbestos, appropriate protective measures and the planning of potential remediation work require expert knowledge and a clear focus on the applicable regulations.

The trade journal tab has published a technical article on this subject entitled "Fire dampers containing asbestos are becoming a renovation issue". In it, Nils Zander, Product Manager for Fire Protection and Smoke Extraction at Wildeboer, explains the significance of VDI 6202 Part 3.1 for the investigation, assessment and renovation planning of fire dampers containing asbestos.

We have also compiled further information on handling fire dampers containing asbestos, as well as on condition assessment, maintenance and refurbishment, in our blog post.
