Holz-Her UK’s fire door manufacturing event returns for 2024

Fire safety regulations mandated by government and regulatory bodies create a constant demand for fire doors and have been behind the double-digit growth seen in the UK timber fire door manufacturing market over the last 18 months. Not only has there been a growing awareness and concern for fire safety in the wake of events like Grenfell, but the growth of construction across residential, commercial and industrial sectors is also continuing to contribute to the demand for fire doors.

But, with market growth comes competition and a heightened need for the very best panel processing machinery.  

Returning for 2024 by popular demand, Holz-Her UK will be running its Fire Door Manufacturing in-house event from the 14th-16th May. Part of Weinig’s Connect series, the three-day event – taking place at the machinery manufacturer’s state-of-the-art showroom in Abingdon – will focus on the technological advancements of the cutting, edging and machining of door blanks and will feature dedicated demonstrations designed to reflect both small-and large-scale production facilities.

The team will also present solutions to enhance the efficiency and functionality of your manufacturing processes, whilst offering ideas that will offer a high level of flexibility – perfectly suited to ongoing changes in building and fire safety regulations.

“The commitment to safeguarding lives and property from fire incidents has never been more apparent,” says Paul Nightingale, National Sales Manager. “However, without the right production processes in place to meet the UK’s strict performance standards, manufacturers can be held back by cost and time constraints. That’s why we’re dedicating our spring event to helping manufacturers navigate their way through the fire door market. From the initial cutting of door blanks on our Sector 1254 vertical saw and Tectra 6120 Power beam saw and edging solid hardwood lippings up to 15mm using PUR on our Sprint 1329 and Lumina 1596 edgebanders to machining locks, hinges and vision panels on our Evolution 7405 vertical CNC and Epicon 7135 CNC routers, we will be showcasing a range of different methods designed to simplify and enhance your production.”
