What is LITEFLAM?
LITEFLAM is the first-ever listed and labelled fire-rated glass floor and walkable skylights system designed to assist the modern architect with their vision to create an open light-filled space in an otherwise enclosed facility.
Allowing and encouraging natural light to penetrate deep into the building — ultimately creating a vibrant and inviting atmosphere — LITEFLAM has been used in past projects for application in glass bridges, roof plazas, and subterranean levels of buildings.
Beyond adding aesthetic value to virtually any building, LITEFLAM can also be used as a durable, non-slip walking surface. Designed to bear standard loads of up to 100psf and protect against fire, seismic, blast, smoke and radiant heat transfer for 1 to 2 hours, LITEFLAM is an advanced glass floor system unlike any other.
Labelled and listed as an exterior walkable glazed system assembly in North America, LITEFLAM also holds the title of the first-ever AAMA tested sacrificial sheet that allows for partial standalone replacement of damaged or worn-out components. LITEFLAM is also the first to be blast and seismic labelled and listed in the industry. In addition to this, LITEFLAM systems have also been tested and are listed with the following laboratories to guarantee safety and reliability:
-
UL – Underwriter Laboratories
-
SwRI – South West Research Institute Laboratories
