Fire safety was a major issue when it came to the specification of doors and windows at a new Sheffield Children's Hospital in the U.K., according to an article on the Glass on Web website.
Fire-resistant screen and door sets were installed in the new Outpatients Department that opened in late 2016.
“The new department offers spacious waiting rooms with a much brighter children friendly environment. The whole concept is based on the experience of visiting a warm, welcoming place, a far cry from the traditional hospital environment," Martin Quarmby, director of the Arkoni glass manufacturing company, said in the article.
The hospital also has a large play tube relaxation area for children which also has fire-rated glazing protection to its glazed areas, Quarmby said.
