White Cap Firestop Services
Firestop products improve building acoustics by blocking gaps that can carry sound. They can also help reduce building movement, minimizing post-earthquake impacts, thermal movement of piping systems, structural deflection, and vibration in industrial facilities. Firestops also improve sustainability and a building’s green rating to meet LEED certifications.

Fire Protection Pillows, Sheets, and Wools
These components are designed for use in through-penetration firestops, such as cable trays, conduit, and blank openings. These self-contained, intumescent products expand and lock in place in the event of a fire, helping prevent the spread of smoke, fire, and toxic gases.
Fire Protection Mortar and Putty
Mixing mortars with water forms a heat-absorbing firestop that helps provide fire protections in through penetrations in fire-rated floor and wall assemblies. Versatile mortar can be either mixed self-leveling or non-sag, and it adheres to a range of construction substrates and penetrants. It also acts as a heat sink, reducing the chance of fire on unexposed sides of the assembly. Intumescent putty can be easily formed to firestop through penetrations and blank openings in fire-rated assemblies.
