sprinkler boxing has helped speed sprinkler system installations on high-rise and low-rise residential fire safety improvement projects, as they’re quick and easy to fit, using screws, battens and dedicated accessories to cover surface mounted pipework. Concealing boiler pipework, valves, regulators


and filters is equally simple with the BC range of boiler pipe casings, which are designed to be free standing. Four casing options are available, including jointed designs that can be supplied


BC boiler pipe casings


either factory assembled, or as components for on-site assembly. A joint-less one-piece casing and bespoke
