The scheme was developed to enable installers/applicators to gain the necessary level of skill through training. The quality of workmanship is monitored on an ongoing basis through site inspection of work in progress and audit checks of quality management systems.

This combination of site inspections, quality management system audits and training means it is possible to ensure that FIRAS Accredited Installers are competent to undertake the installation work for which they are accredited.
 

EXCEL GLASS is an accredited installer of Fire Resistant Glazing and we have demonstrated compliance with the FIRAS Regulations and Procedures by having our supervisors successfully complete a training course operated by Warrington Fire Research.

We are required to maintain adequate records detailing the purchase and use of all materials that form part of the fire resisting installations, together with the employment of staff who understand the significance of their responsibilities to the provision of fire safety in buildings.

We can therefore provide both knowledgeable advice and a quality service in the extremely important area of fire resistant glazing.
