This rapid response meant Promat UK was tasked with reducing its usual lead time from six weeks to just four. Working in conjunction with Promat SYSTEMGLAS® approved installer Rated Solutions, the team was able to provide EI30 fire-resistant glazing which took the form of four large screens, two of which featured doors, with each measuring 6000mm wide by nearly 3000mm high. This was used over four floors to securely enclose a lightwell which had been installed to provide additional light throughout the building. The Promat team ensured the glass was delivered on time, with over 50m2 of glass cut, edge finished and taped before being quality checked and delivered to the site. The installation was finished by the Rated Solutions team with just hours to spare. Rebecca Knight, Managing Director of Ovo Spaces said: “Promat and Rated Solutions have been hugely helpful throughout the process, from initial quotation to installation, everything has been very clear and well done. They worked to extremely tight deadlines to manufacture the screens and their site installation teams were both speedy and efficient and a thoroughly friendly team, installing an excellent quality system. In future, they will be our “go-to” people!” Fire glass specialist Promat UK has pulled out all the stops to help an interior design and build contractor successfully complete an office fit-out scheme in Sheffield on time, meeting the tightest of client deadlines at its busiest time of the year.
