FläktGroup® SEMCO® Announces New Fire and Safety Business Division

New product line includes fire-rated panels, tunnel fans and parking garage fans.

Columbia, Mo. – FläktGroup SEMCO, a national leader in efficient air distribution and indoor air quality solutions, has announced the addition of a new Fire and Safety Division. The product lines available from this division include fire-rated panels, tunnel fans and parking garage fans.

The fan product lines for this division were developed by FläktGroup, a world leader of air technologies solutions for HVAC systems, and has been made available to customers in the United States and Canada, manufactured and assembled in the United States by FläktGroup SEMCO. With over a century of accumulated experience, the technology developed by the companies that would later form FläktGroup, is trusted for its performance, reliability and quality. They are designed to be installed in spaces that require ventilation from both day-to-day pollution and emergency smoke.

FläktGroup SEMCO CEO Trevor Young said, “The FläktGroup fan technology has been tested and proven all over the world, and we are pleased to manufacture it in America for the benefit of our local customers. The fan products align well with our goal of providing safe and efficient air management solutions and allow us to build upon the firm foundation of excellence on which these products have been developed.”

The fire rated panels, sold as part the SEMCO PANL Solutions product line, are known as FR-PANL Solutions, a National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 251 compliant acoustical/thermal panel for HVAC system and power generating enclosure, plenum, ductwork and structural wall barrier applications. In addition to a low thermal transfer rate, its integrated structure and acoustical protection make this product code-compliant for many applications.
