Fire rated glass(which is often referred to as fire-resistant glass,fire protection glass,anti fire glass or fireproof glass) is a specialized glazing product designed to act as a barrier against fire, smoke, and heat transfer for a specified period, helping to contain a fire and allow safe evacuation.
EN 13501-2 is the European standard for the fire classification of construction products and building elements, used to classify fire-rated glass based on its performance in fire resistance tests.
Fire resistance refers to the ability of a material or assembly to withstand fire, while fire rating is the specific time (e.g., 60 minutes) for which it can maintain its performance under test conditions.
