Fire performance is a contractual requirement on most public and commercial buildings in Saudi Arabia, and OBO Bettermann — the German manufacturer established in 1911 — addresses it through the BSS Fire protection systems segment. Alzab Algharbiyah supplies fire-tested junction boxes, fire protection ducts, false ceiling mounting systems and fire-stop insulation and bandages to contractors working under Saudi Civil Defense requirements and international safety standards. These products are specified as complete fire-stop systems, so cable penetrations and routed services keep their fire rating after installation. The segment sits within the wider OBO Bettermann segment hub.
Fire-Tested Junction Boxes
Fire-tested junction boxes protect connections inside walls and ceilings where a fire compartment must be maintained. The FireBox range — FireBox T60 with plug-in seals, FireBox with double terminals, and FireBox T100 for data technology with 4x8 entries — is complemented by ceramic terminals that withstand elevated temperatures. Specifying tested boxes avoids the need to retrofit protection around ordinary enclosures at a later stage in the programme.
Fire Protection Ducts
Fire protection ducts keep cables serviceable while respecting the fire rating of the surface they cross. PYROLINEAr Rapid PLM installation ducts with fire protection mesh at 44 mm duct height, the PYROLINEAr Con S I90/E30 duct and the PYROLINEAr Con D duct rated EI30 to EI60, together with matching covers in 100 mm width, form a consistent set for wall and floor transitions in escape routes and service areas.
False Ceiling Mounting
Services that run above suspended ceilings still need support that does not compromise the behaviour of the ceiling in a fire. This section covers false ceiling cable trays, false ceiling mesh cable trays, false ceiling mounting systems and fire-tested individual routing systems, giving a coordinated approach for lighting, power and data routes across open ceilings in offices, retail units and circulation spaces.
Fire-Stop Insulation and Bandages
Fire-stop insulation and bandages close the gaps that cables and pipes leave in a fire barrier. The range covers insulation for maintaining fire sections, cable bandages that prevent the spread of fire, and components that close rooms around service openings. Used with tested junction boxes and ducts, they let a contractor hand over a building with documented fire-stopping throughout the routed services. Alzab's team checks that the specified system matches the penetration type, cable group and wall or floor construction shown on the project drawings.
Fire protection is rarely specified in isolation: the trays, ducts and trunking that need fire-stopping usually belong to the same routing scheme. Projects therefore combine BSS with KTS cable support systems in plant and riser areas and with LFS cable routing systems in finished rooms.
