Bulkhead & Deckhead Fire-Rated Installation Contractor in Dubai UAE

When it comes to protecting critical marine, offshore, and industrial infrastructure from the destructive power of fire, Bulkhead and Deckhead Fire-Rated Insulation Contracting Services in Dubai, UAE and Middle East are an essential requirement. At Protek Contracting, we are proud to lead the way in delivering fully certified, regulation-compliant, and performance-driven solutions across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah, and Fujairah.

Why Bulkhead and Deckhead Fire-Rated Insulation Is Essential

In marine and offshore environments, the bulkheads (walls) and deckheads (ceilings) play a vital role in maintaining the integrity of the structure. These areas often act as the first line of defense against fire propagation, smoke spread, and thermal radiation. Implementing fire-rated insulation systems in these zones helps to:

  • Contain fire and smoke within the source compartment
  • Preserve the structural integrity of vessels and offshore platforms
  • Minimize heat transmission and protect nearby systems
  • Provide valuable evacuation time for personnel
  • Comply with IMO, SOLAS, and UAE Civil Defense fire safety regulations

Whether for oil rigs in Abu Dhabi, marine vessels in Dubai, or FPSO units docked in Sharjah, our tailored fire-rated insulation solutions enhance fire protection without compromising mechanical or environmental performance.

Protek’s Scope of Services Across All Emirates
