Duct Sealing Times

Commercial Manager (20,000+ followers) - Duct Sealing / Fire Sealing / LV & MV Cable Joints / Fibre Optic Gas SealsOver the past 15 years Duct Sealing has become an important factor when designing and constructing new buildings; however, it remains both a task and a product that a lot of companies overlook and underestimate the time required to effectively seal ducts. The majority of end users & specifications of duct seal products require a quick & simple installation, with a re-enterable seal that can cope in extreme circumstances. Water & Waste Treatment plants, areas where hydrocarbons are present, buildings within high water tables areas, and oxygen suppression systems in data centres are just a few examples (and there are many more) where difficult circumstances are encountered requiring a specialised product to be utilised. Filoform designs and manufactures specially formulated products where one product can cover all requirements.

MOST COMMON SEALING SPECIFICATIONS REQUIRED: Sealing cable ducts in different industries requires slightly different specifications, which over the years have changed due to the different environments encountered with chemicals and gases that are used or naturally present.

Although most industries require different resistances, the most common problems arising from open or poorly sealed ducts can result is rust, corrosion, and humid environments, which in turn contribute or cause damage to support structures, metal work, and electrical components, all of which are very costly to maintain and repair.
