In a post-Grenfell world, the pressing need for enhanced fire safety measures during cladding remediation projects is at an all-time high - especially when working on occupied buildings.
This, coupled with recent damage caused to historic structures such as Notre Dame and the Copenhagen Stock Exchange, led to Thermocable and Ramtech collaborating to create an innovative solution, revolutionising fire safety in construction.

Solutions
Ramtech, in partnership with Thermocable, has developed the highly advanced ‘linear fire detection system’, tailored specifically for increasing safety on scaffolding structures.
By leveraging Thermocable’s linear heat detection technology and Ramtech’s WES3 and REACT systems, we have created a cutting-edge fire detection system for scaffolding. The ProReact Fixed Activation LHD system uses heat sensing cable to detect increases in temperature, providing an accurate location of an overheat event. Communicating with Ramtech’s systems, this adds an extra layer of protection with remote monitoring, medical and evacuation features.
Benefits
- Unparalleled fire detection capabilities, ensuring early identification and prompt response to potential fire incidents
- Fully automated temporary fire system
- Suitable for use in dirty, dusty, damp and hazardous environments, and interfacing easily with existing protection systems, Thermocable’s LHD cable is fitted to the underside of the scaffolding, using the stainless steel braiding to protect it from any mechanical damage
