Kayan Smoke Curtains: Advanced Smoke Control That Saves Lives
🔹 Why Smoke Control Is Essential
Many people believe fire are the greatest danger during a fire.
In reality, smoke spreads much faster, reducing visibility, limiting breathing, and making evacuation extremely difficult.
This is why smoke management has become one of the most important parts of modern passive fire protection.
Kayan Smoke Curtains automatically control smoke movement before it fills occupied spaces.

🛡️ What Are Kayan Smoke Curtains?
Kayan Smoke Curtains are automated smoke containment systems designed to deploy automatically once the building fire alarm activates.
Their primary purpose is to channel smoke toward extraction systems while maintaining clear evacuation routes.
They help:
- Control smoke movement
- Improve visibility
- Support smoke ventilation
- Protect escape routes
- Improve firefighter access
🌫️ How Smoke Curtains Work
After alarm activation:
✔ Curtain deploys automatically
✔ Smoke is contained
✔ Smoke is directed toward extraction vents
✔ Escape routes remain clearer
✔ Evacuation becomes safer
The system works together with smoke ventilation and fire alarm systems.
