GGF set to raise profile of fire resistant glazing

This year’s FIREX International returns to ExCeL London on 18 – 20 June, with the Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF) set to be at the heart of it all.

FIREX International will host 130 exhibitors from all over the world, featuring a packed agenda of timely, informative and entertaining seminars, presentations, case studies and educational sessions.

The GGF will be exhibiting at stand number FX715 – a 30 square metre space situated in a prime central position, near the entrance of the show.

Visitors to the GGF stand will see live glass exhibits showing the before and after effects of fire, heat and smoke on glass.

In addition, the GGF will have video demonstrations and a live speaking slot in the Seminar programme.

The exhibition is completely free to attend and here are some of the things visitors can expect from Europe’s only event dedicated to fire safety.

Expert Guidance and Training

Hosted in the dedicated Expertise and Guidance Theatre, the comprehensive seminar programme is rich with sessions covering tall building safety, passive fire protection, case studies, compliance after Brexit and more.

The agenda is designed to help fire safety professionals enhance their knowledge, engage with fire thought leadership and stay up-to-date on the critical trends, products and legislation shaping the sector.

Over three days, visitors will have access to in excess of 25 hours of complimentary seminars and workshops, offering you valuable insights into key development areas in the fire safety industry, including the ongoing Grenfell Inquiry and passive fire protection.

Adrian Blaydon, GGF Technical Officer (pictured below), is presenting in the seminar programmes on ‘The Importance of Fire Resistant Glazing’.

Previewing the event, Adrian commented: “Following the Grenfell Tower fire and Hackitt Review, we all need to take even more responsibility and report signs of where fire safety is an issue.

“At FIREX, we will be showing the importance of Fire Resistant Glazing systems with focus on the product performance, its specification and installation.”

The GGF will also be offering promotional vouchers for its Fire Resistant Glazing Training course.
