The challenge
In production and logistics spaces with critical, continuous processes, fire-resistant protection had to be installed without disrupting the production schedule, and with attention to the site's strict safety requirements.
Our approach
After an extensive consultation and assessment of the structure and technical penetrations, we installed fire-resistant steel cladding and seals in tightly coordinated time windows around the production schedule.
The result
The protection is tailored to the high demands of a high-tech production environment and was carried out without production interruptions.
Key facts
- Client: ASML
- Location: Veldhoven
- Year: 2024
- Certificates: All handed over on completion
- File: Recorded and kept up to date by us
Services deployed
All certificates handed over, everything recorded
At handover, the client received all certificates. Every provision we installed has been recorded, and we keep those records up to date.
The file covers the fire-resistant steel cladding and the seals of the technical penetrations.
A certificate alone does not prove that a provision is right. What also matters is where and how the product was applied. That is why the record for each provision states which system was installed where. This lets the owner show that the fire protection provisions are present and correctly installed.
Is there an inspection by the municipality, fire service or insurer, or is a pipe or cable added later? Then the file shows straight away which system is where, so that a seal that has been opened can be restored with a suitable system.
Fire safety duty of care under the Bbl: what does it mean for owners and users?In the file
- All certificates, handed to the client at handover
- For each provision: the location, the material and the date
- Photos of the work
- Kept up to date by us, also after handover
What this means for your own building
Work around the production schedule
In an environment with continuous processes, production decides when work can be done. By planning the work in time windows agreed in advance, production kept running.
Logistics & industryMap the structure and penetrations together
Assessing both the steel structure and the technical penetrations beforehand means the protection fits into a single schedule, without surprises during the work.
Consultancy & AssessmentA label makes a seal traceable
In the photo under our approach, there is a registration label next to the seal. Such a label links the spot to the file: during an inspection or when a new penetration is made, you can see straight away which system is there and when it was installed.
