Passive Fire Insulation Design

Fire safety is not tested when drawings are approved — it is tested when lives depend on it.

According to the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), India reported over 12,000 fire accidents in 2022 , with building fires accounting for a significant share. Many investigations highlight insufficient passive fire protection as a root cause.

At Swa Consultancy, our methodology ensures that fire-resistant assemblies are not just specified but fully integrated with the building’s structure and services.

Active fire systems like sprinklers react after ignition. Passive fire systems prevent fire from spreading in the first place. They buy time — for evacuation, for response, for saving lives.

Practical Detailing

Our designs account for ductwork, cabling, and HVAC interfaces where risks are highest.

Durability & Lifecycle Focus

We choose assemblies that maintain integrity over years, not just during inspections.

Integrated Protection

Design for walls, decks, façades, and service penetrations — addressing common points of fire spread.

Audit-Ready Compliance

Align with NBC, IS, and ASTM standards; present documentation in auditor-friendly formats.
