Fire Boarding

Fire-resistant boards come with a variety of benefits both in terms of day-to-day functioning and also with additional fire protection properties to enhance the passive fire protection of your building. Fire Boards come with high heat resistance, which is essential for mitigating the impact of the heat and flames.

Their fire rating will depend on the brand, and the thickness and number of layers used. Generally speaking, flame-resistant boards can withstand temperatures of up to 1100°C, with the best available products being able to resist for up to two hours.

These barriers are lightweight which makes for an easy installation process with the ability for them to be adapted and adjusted to fit the rooms. As well as providing sound resistance, the boards are also moisture resistant.

This means that they are suitable to be installed into bathrooms or even basements if they are prone to moisture All of these factors contribute to a versatile solution to prevent the spread of flames as well as providing thermal and acoustic insulation.

That being said, ire boards are always used alongside other fire protection measures to strengthen the resistance.
