Metal fire protection ceilings from Lindner offer certified fire resistance classes (F30, F90, EI30, EI90, VKF) for new builds and refurbishments. They provide reliable protection in the ceiling void – ideal for escape routes. Installations remain safe if exposed to fire from below. The systems are tested by the building authorities and many connection details are integrated as standard.
Fire protection ceilings play a vital role in holistic fire safety planning. They do far more than simply form the upper enclosure of a room – in an emergency, they prevent the spread of fire and heat through ceiling voids, protecting sensitive installations as well as essential escape and rescue routes.
Lindner Group’s metal fire protection ceilings meet the highest requirements for structural fire protection and offer certified fire resistance ratings – including F30 and F90 (to DIN 4102-2) as well as EI30 and EI90 (to DIN EN 13501-2 and VKF guidelines for Switzerland). They are ideal for use in new-build projects, refurbishments, or for retrofitting safety zones in existing buildings.
Often underestimated but crucial: ceiling voids contain numerous installation-related sources of risk – such as cable trays, ventilation ducts or sprinkler pipework. If this area is not protected in the event of fire, there is a risk of rapid fire spread into adjacent parts of the building.
Lindner’s suspended metal fire protection ceilings provide a reliable solution: when exposed to fire from below, building services and infrastructure within the void remain protected. At the same time, the ceilings prevent fire from spreading downwards, safeguarding escape and rescue routes so that evacuation remains possible.
Our fire protection ceilings are characterised by modular construction, easy installation and flexible maintenance options. A combination of hook-on, hinged drop-down or lower-and-slide functions provides access to ceiling voids without compromising the protective performance. This means technical maintenance can be carried out safely and efficiently, even while the building remains in operation.
Typical classifications include:
Example: Our EI30 drop-down ceiling Type 8.1 offers not only tested fire resistance, but also easy accessibility – a major advantage in technical zones and corridor areas.
