Heavily frequented areas of buildings such as shopping centres and train stations require subtle, unobtrusive but effective smoke screens to ensure that in the event of a fire, the spread of smoke is limited as effectively and safely as possible. The powerful heat resistance of PYRAN® means it’s ideal for this purpose, while its stable light transmission and attractive appearance fit seamlessly with the modern look of 21st century public spaces.
Unobtrusive but effective, smoke screens ensure that in the event of a fire, the spread of smoke is limited as effectively and safely as possible. Integrating discreetly into your design, the powerful heat resistance of PYRAN® provides vital protection for occupants of residential buildings and workplaces.
Safe and beautiful with PYRAN® S smoke screens
Smoke screens work by preventing the spread of smoke throughout a building in the event of a fire. Hanging from the ceiling, they combine a closed area at the top with an open area at the bottom, effectively creating a trap and preventing the lateral flow of smoke and hot gases into another section. Due to the excellent transparency of PYRAN® S smoke screens, the smoke curtain is almost invisible, but in the event of a fire you can rely on its protective mechanism.
SCHOTT Smoke Screens that fulfil your inspiration
Due to several fire tests with SCHOTT PYRAN® S, the 5 mm smoke screen allows multiple mounting setups. This includes faceted and curved-glass smoke screens, with fixings that can either be hidden or installed by a small bracket or tube.
With a colour-rendering index close to 100, PYRAN® S appears to vanish in daily life, and since they are made with borosilicate glass, PYRAN® S smoke screens offer a very high transparency of 92 %.
Available in unlimited lengths with heights up to 2 m, PYRAN® S also offers a reduced mass due to a low thickness of 5 mm (11.5 kg/m²). The combination of a colour rendering index near 100 % and fire-tested concealed fixings allows PYRAN® S smoke screens to blend in with their surroundings.
Fire-resistant glass with a range of features for more design options
PYRAN® S smoke screens made with borosilicate glass offer a very high transparency of 92 %, while a thickness of just 5 mm (11.5 kg/m²) makes them lighter than other screens. The combination of colour rendering index near 100% and fire-tested concealed fixings enables PYRAN® S smoke screens to blend in with their surroundings.
