What is Passive Fire Protection?
Passive fire protection (PFP) is a system of building components and materials designed to contain fires and limit their spread — without active intervention. Unlike sprinkler systems, PFP works automatically by its inherent construction: fire-rated walls, floors, sealed penetrations and protected structural elements.
Effective passive fire protection is required by the National Construction Code for most commercial and industrial buildings. CBS Building Group installs certified PFP systems across Townsville, Cairns and North Queensland, with systems backed by test evidence and appropriate accreditation.
