MUMBAI, India, Feb. 6 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511132471 A) filed by Anhad Kashyap; and Dipika Kashyap, New Delhi, on Dec. 26, 2025, for 'autonomous heat-activated fire-suppressing brick and wall system.'
Inventor(s) include Anhad Kashyap; and Dipika Kashyap.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 6, under issue no. 06/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses a fire-suppressing construction brick and wall system. Each brick comprises a structural body and at least one sealed metallic chamber embedded within the body, the chamber being pre-filled with a fire-suppressant chemical composition and mechanically isolated by an energy-absorbing support. When exposed to fire, heat and internal pressure cause controlled rupture of the chamber within 5-10 seconds, dispersing suppressant into the flame zone while the brick substantially retains structural integrity. Multiple bricks installed in a wall provide distributed, autonomous fire suppression without external water, power, plumbing, or user intervention. The system is suitable for dense, low-resource settlements and affordable housing. Methods for manufacturing the brick, configuring the chambers in patterned arrays, and using the wall system for passive protection of buildings are also described. Biomimicry-inspired geometry and spring-based shock absorption enable reusability, reduced wall damage, and scalable integration into standard masonry construction workflows worldwide for housing."
