SIKA’S FLEXIBLE SOLUTION FOR
FIRE RATED JOINTS
Not only are building joints potential
weak spots for air and water leakages,
but they can also fuel the spread of heat,
smoke and flames. For e ective passive
fire protection, Sikasil® 670 Fire Rated
Silicone Joint Sealant from building
chemicals manufacturer Sika can help to
contain and control the propagation of
fire by restoring the fire resistance for both
internal and external joints.
Sika’s Sikasil® 670 Fire Rated Silicone
Joint Sealant can be used with standard
polyethylene foam backing rods to
achieve the required level of passive fire protection, and is fire rated to o er up to
4 hours of fire resistance according to EN 1366-4.
Ideally suited for both wall and floor joints, and particularly movement and
connection joints within fire compartments such as stairwells and corridors,
Sika’s Sikasil® 670 Fire Rated Silicone Joint Sealant has been specifically
developed to o er exceptional flexibility . It can also be used on various porous
and non-porous substrates, both inside and out. Easy to work with and with
excellent adhesion, the sealant is moisture-curing and is highly resistant to
weathering.
Sikasil® 670 Fire Rated Silicone Joint Sealant is part of Sika’s extensive range
of passive fire protection solutions, developed to help contain and control the
spread of fire and to restore the fire resistance of linear joints, cavity barriers and
penetration seals.

SILVER LINING FOR A SAFER HYBRID FUTURE
A new super-tough antimicrobial surface coating aims to raise hygiene
standards in the
post-pandemic
hybrid workplace
and reduce
cleaning costs.
Touchpoint
Shield uses
proven silver
ion technology
to destroy
over 99.9% of
pathogens.
Scientific studies
have proved its
e ectiveness against bacteria and viruses, including SARS-CoV-2.
Field trials have confirmed these results, showing Touchpoint Shield is
significantly better at suppressing microorganisms than even high-frequency
touch point cleaning, at a fraction of the cost.
So© FM service specialist SafeGroup says the coating delivers vital advantages
as the UK moves out of the COVID-19 pandemic.
It says Touchpoint Shield raises hygiene standards, supports wellbeing and
can reduce cleaning bills, yet it is very low maintenance and near-invisible so
there is no need for unsightly wraps or handle covers.
Touchpoint Shield combines a super-tough nano-ceramic liquid glass coating
with silver ions and remains in place for up to three years, much longer than
rival sacrificial coatings.

Catering providers are able to see the value taken from a machine in real-time.
