Recessed luminaires or modular light fittings are widely used in public and commercial buildings. The ceilings are subject to fire regulations and most will have to be fire reated.

When a ceiling tile is replaced by a recessed luminaire, the integrity of the ceiling and its fire performance are reduced significantly.

To combat this TENMAT, as part of its continuing development of passive fire protection solutions, has developed a Recessed Luminaire Cover for use in 30 and 60 minute fire rated ceilings.



The Luminaire Cover has been developed to provide maximum protection for ceilings where fire resistant tiles have been replaced by light fittings. The cover is supplied ready to fit and no assembly is required. In a fire situation, the cover prevents the fire from penetrating the ceiling.


The cover also gives additional insulation protection to the ceiling void reducing the chance of ignition of accumulated dust and insulation.

With the cover in place, the modular light fitting can be installed as normal. The cover requires no maintenance and is easy to remove for maintenance of the light fitting.
