      Fire protection curtains

      Fire protection curtains are seal openings in walls and ceilings in case of fire. The constructional set-up (rolling- or folding technology) and the use of different fabrics offer a wide application spectrum as well as different protection targets or classifications and time classes. Casings and side guides of those flexible applicable systems are integrated almost invisibly in the building and provide much scope for design of sophisticated architecture for opened designs.

    • Conveyor system closures

      Conveyor system closures

      Manifold production - and logisitc processes require different construction types of conveying systems. If the haulage drifts are passing through fire-retarding resp. fire-resisting walls or ceilings, the necessary openings must be provided with fire protection closures to avoid the expansion of the fire by conveyor technique or by conveyed material. In case of fire the conveyor system closures have to seal those openings immediately and automatically. Thereby a classified fire resistance as well as the smoothly clearing of the closing area must be respected in case of release.

    • Smoke curtains

      Smoke curtains

      A smoke curtain is part of unit keeping areas free from smoke and may include building parts like natural smoke and heat venting systems and automatic smoke and heat venting systems. Smoke curtains restrict the movement of fire gases inside a building in case of fire.

    • Smoke protection closures

      Smoke protection closures

      In closed condition smoke protection closures restrict the passage of smoke in the phase of fire formation so as to enable the rescue of people, animals or materials assets in case of a fire in the room positioned behind it without the need of breathing protection.

    • Tube sealings

      Tube sealings

      The solution to problems with fire protection dampers for ventilation and air conditioning systems in conveying processes. Stöbich offers fire protection for pneumatic conveying lines where the closing elements are not exposed to the flow. Thus, damage or contamination of the closure element is avoided by abrasive conveyed goods.

    • Controls

      Controls

      Control systems are necessary for all automatic fire protection systems! They are safety-relevant, because without their function or in the event of a malfunction, the entire investment of a fire protection partition would be useless. Controllers coordinate both fire detection and the interaction with other controls, like superordinate building control or the retraction of the closing area at conveyor closing area.

      Médiathèque Charles Nègre | Grasse, France

      The Médiathèque Charles Nègre in Grasse, France, is an impressive example of contemporary architecture that reflects the cultural and historical importance of the region. The information center with space for education, culture and encounters was opened in 2011 and designed by the renowned French architecture firm Marc Barani. The building combines modern aesthetics with the traditional architecture of Provence, creating a harmonious link between old and new, for example by combining modern materials such as glass and steel with local natural stone. The generous window fronts create an atmosphere flooded with light. Ecological sustainability is achieved through natural ventilation and the resulting reduction in energy consumption; green spaces are also integrated on various levels. Our <a href="/us/solutions/fire-protection-curtains/stoebich-fire-smoke-curtain-hc"><b>➥ horizontal Fire and smoke curtain hc</b></a> fire protection curtains fit perfectly into this marvel of contemporary architecture. They securely close the ceiling openings in the event of a fire, but otherwise remain invisible and let in plenty of light and air. Copyright attribution: © Ivry Serres

State Fire Brigade Association at STÖBICH

State Fire Brigade Association at STÖBICH

At the end of October, the Lower Saxony Fire Brigade Association held a committee meeting on "Operations, environmental hazards, disaster prevention" at the volunteer fire department in Goslar. What could be more natural than to obtain detailed information from STÖBICH about safety and fire protection when dealing with lithium-ion batteries?

For several years, STÖBICH and the Goslar Volunteer Fire Department have shared an interest in the safe storage or transport of critical energy storage devices. In close cooperation, the fire protection specialists developed clever solutions for lithium-ion batteries that can release hazardous gases in the event of an accident. Such ➥ StrainBox transport boxes from STÖBICH were handed over to the Goslar fire department and were recently used again in the ➥ fire of an electric scooter in Dörnten.

Last Friday, on the occasion of the EUK Committee, we were visited not only by the Goslar district fire chief and his deputy, but also by other district fire chiefs of various Lower Saxony counties, representatives of the Lower Saxony Ministry of the Interior and the president of the Lower Saxony State Fire Brigade Association. A total of 13 people took part in our information event in the STÖBICH showroom. Among other things, the focus was on Li-ion battery systems (LiBS) and their structure, function and designs as well as the associated fire behavior and hazard potential. After the theoretical presentation of the battery safety systems StrainBox and StrainLock, the participants could get to know the products during a tour. The tour of the battery test center on the STÖBICH premises formed the crowning conclusion.

For our guests it was a "very interesting event with great insights into the dangers of lithium-ion batteries and how to handle them safely with appropriate products." Marc Dinse from STÖBICH concluded: "We are in close exchange with the Goslar Fire Department and are always happy to receive requests for such events. In this way, we can make an important contribution to the safe handling of lithium-ion batteries. The event has again shown that there is also a great need for action in the fire department when it comes to the correct handling of lithium-ion batteries. This applies to operations involving burning batteries as well as when handling their own battery-powered equipment."
