Made-to-measure solution
Made-to-measure solution configured and approved by our design office.
Are you looking for a reliable, compliant solution that is perfectly suited to your worksite? With OTEXIO, each installation is configured made to measure to guarantee safety, performance and regulatory compliance.
✔ A personalised configuration carried out by our technical sales representatives, who analyse your needs directly in the field or based on your plans. Their expertise enables them to:
- define the exact sizing of your system,
- choose the options suited to your technical constraints,
- ensure compatibility with your environment and structures,
- optimise the installation to reduce risks.
Industrial buildings designed for fire safety and high-risk environments. They are designed to meet the strictest fire safety requirements, particularly for ICPE sites storing or handling waste, flammable or combustible materials.
Thanks to their steel design and the integration of high-performance metal roofing and cladding systems, they guarantee a high level of fire resistance, while offering very large usable volumes and total design freedom.
WHY CHOOSE OUR BROOF T3 TUNNELS?
A design developed to control fire risk
The building structure and envelope are sized to meet the constraints related to industrial fire risks:
- Fire resistance up to R30, depending on the configuration
- Risk-level-based approach: R15 or R30
- BROOF (T3) classified roofing, limiting the spread of fire through the roof
- Materials compatible with the requirements of insurers and administrative authorities
These buildings are particularly suitable for classified installations for environmental protection (ICPE).
Their design takes into account:
- the nature of the stored products,
- the required volumes and heights,
- operating and handling constraints,
- current and future regulatory obligations.
They are fully integrated into a global fire prevention strategy.
Exceptional dimensions for industrial activities
Long-span steel buildings make it possible to create very large continuous spaces, without the constraint of intermediate posts.
This configuration is ideal for: bulk storage, multiple storage bays, major logistics flows, and activities requiring a high usable height.
A single structure to cover several areas: one building can cover several storage bays or storage areas, improving:
- productivity,
- site organisation,
- traffic safety.
A solution adapted to each activity and each site
Each building is designed made to measure, according to:
- the level of fire risk,
- the type of products stored,
- handling methods,
- land constraints,
- the budget.
This modularity makes it possible to design everything without compromising between safety, operation and scalability.
Turnkey support
The solution is not limited to the supply of a building. The project is managed as a whole:
- technical and regulatory study,
- fire and structural sizing,
- coordination of stakeholders,
- site and safety management,
- final on-site installation.
These structures fully benefit from the OTEXIO ten-year guarantee . As a general contractor, OTEXIO assumes responsibility for the entire project, covering the structure, the stability of the work and its long-term performance. This ten-year guarantee secures your investment over the long term and confirms the reliability of the solutions implemented, in perfect alignment with the requirements of industrial and ICPE sites.

Does choosing a fire-resistant building have an impact on the site's day-to-day operations?
Yes, choosing a fire-resistant industrial building has a direct and positive impact on operations.
A structure designed for fire risk makes handling operations safer, limits operating constraints imposed by insurers and guarantees business continuity, even on high-volume or high-risk sites. The large volumes, significant usable heights and optimised circulation make work easier for teams and industrial equipment.
OTEXIO can advise you: book an appointment with our technical sales specialists for a visit to your site.
Do these buildings allow the site to remain operational during the construction phase?
Yes. The project design and organisation make it possible to greatly limit the impact on existing operations. The building is designed for rapid assembly, with precise planning of intervention phases and coordination adapted to the constraints of the industrial site. This approach makes it possible to maintain activity continuously, or with a minimum of interruptions, even on operating sites, while guaranteeing the safety of teams and flows.
Which materials are used to guarantee high fire resistance?
These industrial buildings are designed using steel structures and metal roofing and cladding systems specifically selected for their fire behaviour.
The materials used help slow the spread of flames, preserve the stability of the structure and meet the strictest European regulatory requirements, particularly for sites handling or storing flammable materials.
Are these buildings compatible with the requirements of ICPE sites?
Yes, their design is intended for classified installations for environmental protection (ICPE).
They integrate an overall approach to fire risk, taking into account:
- stored materials
- volumes
- site configuration
- operating conditions
They therefore make it possible to comply with current ICPE orders and anticipate future regulatory changes.
Is it possible to combine very large dimensions with high fire resistance?
Absolutely. One of the main strengths of these buildings lies in their ability to combine large industrial volumes with high fire performance.
The steel structure and roofing materials are sized to maintain their mechanical and fire-separation performance, even with large spans and heights, without any compromise on safety.
Can these buildings evolve over time?
Yes. Their modular design allows:
- future extensions
- volume or configuration adjustments
- changes in building use
This enables operators to secure their investment over the long term while retaining a high level of operational flexibility.
