FSi Promat has updated its digital Quick Selector tool, helping specifiers and installers quickly find compliant fire stopping solutions through easy access to accurate technical details and information
Developed in response to customer feedback, the latest version includes updated technical information to support compliance with current standards, alongside an enhanced user experience that makes it quicker and easier for users to self-serve and locate the fire stopping solution they need.
Enhanced search functionality, clearly organised performance data and installation guidance make the Quick Selector easier to navigate, helping users quickly move between solutions and find the fire stopping details they need. Breadcrumb navigation further improves usability by allowing users to retrace their steps or return to the homepage at any time.
Users can more easily access links to third-party certification evidence, technical data sheets, NBS source listings, product landing pages and additional supporting resources.
In addition, customers can now identify the correct fire stopping solution in just three simple steps:
-
Select the wall substrate type.
-
Choose the required EI rating and service type.
-
Select the preferred fit or seal type.
By filtering results according to EI rating, specifiers and installers can quickly refine hundreds of tested details to those that meet their project’s specific fire performance requirements, making product selection faster, simpler and more efficient.
Version 4 also expands the scope of tested fire stopping applications, introducing new details for shaft walls, loft spaces, beam encasement fire stopping, and composite panel systems commonly found in data centre environments. With more than 600 details now available, the updated tool provides specifiers and installers with an even broader range of tested solutions for a wide variety of construction scenarios.
Improved drawing references facilitate easier identification and document retrieval. Consistent templates ensure a standardised suite of details and information in project packs, allowing customers to quickly identify solutions that meet their specific requirements.
“Navigating fire stopping solutions is complicated, with so many variables and requirements to contend with, and each manufacturer having differences in their testing and scope. Installers and specifiers need an easy way to identify systems for their specific building designs, plus access to reliable technical information to keep projects moving while maintaining compliance,” explained Emma Taylor, marketing manager at FSi Promat.
“We’ve tailored version 4 of Quick Selector using customer insights to create an easy and quick user experience to help find suitable, compliant, fire stopping systems, along with direct access to the relevant technical details and documents to support its specification and installation.
“Alongside expert technical support, self-serve tools like Quick Selector help remove unnecessary complexity from product selection, giving customers more confidence that they’re working with the latest certified information, even on complex projects.”
Quick Selector version 4 is now available to use online. Access the how-to video guide and Quick Selector tool here.
