MMC and Fire Safety: The Application of PAS 8700

29 Apr 2026
Fire Safety Leaders Summit
Fire Safety Leaders Summit

Organised by the FPA, this engaging panel session will tackle industry concerns around fire safety in modern methods of construction (MMC). The discussion will consider gaps between innovation and safety systems in the construction sector, including best practice challenges in the MMC industry and the need for fire safety to be on the agenda across all sectors.

Panellists will also discuss the danger of MMC fire risks being treated the same as those in traditional construction, particularly given the reliance on contractors to ensure fire stopping measures are installed correctly once materials are taken on-site.
