One incredibly important aspect to consider when installing raised floor system is the safety of your building. Although raised floor systems rarely cause fire, the quality of raised flooring can influence such fires. Consequently, fire resistant floors are significant to your overall safety, which also acts as crucial means of escape.
A fire test is the standard procedure to determine the resistance capability of a floor i.e., the 'reaction to fire' when a small flame is directly applied onto its surface or one of its edges. Huiya, one of the leading brands in pioneering raised floor solutions, strictly adheres to the European 'reaction to fire' performance, radiant heat flux protocol and thermal radiation levels. Each system designed by Huiya’s engineers undergoes ISO standard parameters and categorized under EN 13501-1 Classes A2FL, BFL, CFL OR DFL.
Materials and equipments used in the Raised Floor construction for offices or data center must comply with most countries' national and international regulations. These regulations limits flammability, smoke density, and adequately controls the toxic fume production.
At Huiya, we pay attention to these standards at the initial stage of the production – while selecting & procuring the raw material. We choose the best products for the raised floor construction, and the right choice is based on the fire rating of the panels, pedestals, and other materials.
There are numerous types of raised floor system, with different scope and intended uses, which can increase a building's productivity. As a general rule, the right choice is based on the fire rating of the compartment and on the floor (contributing to fire resistance to existing element or fire rated floor) and on aesthetical aspects.
Raised floor tile is applied on an elevated structural floor above a solid substrate to smooth finish. Natural stone, masonry surface, ceramic finish, and porcelain tiles are some of the most common tiles used as your flooring finish.
Their significance becomes imperative for creating contrast or match the panel design. This way, you can create a beautiful ambiance inside your premises.

Raised floor height on different arrangement influences the air distribution performance in a data center. Thus, you must give a well-thought consideration to the space, requirement, and purpose for prudent decision.
There are generally two types of raised floor:
The low profile raised floor are light-weight and is a floor less than 6" in height. It is exclusively for organizing cables, wires, and conduit. Due to the low clearance, under-floor airflow is not a concern or option.
The standard/traditional raised floor is anything higher than 6" in height and are often recommended in industrial, corporate or institutional settings. Compared to the low profile raised floor systems, standard raised floors are heavy-duty, rugged, and designed to provide plenty of space for wires, cables, and piping. However, it doesn’t offer flexibility and ease of use.
The raised floor is the standard equipment for the modern offices and comes in many extensive ranges. Of course, the system must be supportive for environments to meet complex electrical and telecommunications infrastructure needs. Since it offers mobility, the material used in raised floor construction must also facilitate this entire structure's maintenance activities.
In case if you encounter a wall or pillar. Go for an edge treatment.
