Maximum fire protection for your building façade.

In cities and urban centres in particular, there is a trend towards high-density construction, with the construction of high-rise buildings continuing to increase. As the height of buildings increases, so do the requirements for safety and fire protection. In recent years in particular, this has repeatedly come to the fore due to numerous tragic fire incidents. As a result, high-rise buildings in many European countries have been reassessed in terms of their fire risk and building regulations have been tightened. 

 

Architects and planners bear a significant responsibility for planning and implementing the legally prescribed fire protection measures. The selection of suitable façade materials and insulation materials is therefore of the utmost importance, especially in high-rise buildings and buildings with a high risk potential such as schools, hospitals, hotels and retirement homes. 

 

Consideration of future building utilisation 

 

Future usage scenarios must also be taken into account, as a building can change over time from an office complex to a retirement home, for example, which changes its fire safety requirements. For this reason, it is advisable to consider the safety of buildings and their users over their entire service life. The use of non-combustible building materials is the only way to minimise the potential danger.

 

We make no compromises when it comes to safety

 

As a manufacturer of aluminium composite panels, we are aware of our responsibility and make no compromises. In line with our BE.SAFE. philosophy, the protection of human life is our top priority and has a decisive influence on our product developments. Since 1999, we have only produced composite panels that are either flame-retardant (B-s1, d0) or have a non-combustible core (A1, A2-s1, d0). Our primary goal is to offer our customers the highest level of safety, including comprehensive education and knowledge transfer on the subject of fire protection for façades. In this way, we want to ensure that you are informed about all relevant aspects.

Non-combustible façade panel: ALPOLIC NC/A1

Choosing the right building material is crucial for the safety of buildings. Materials are categorised according to their flammability in Euroclasses from F (inflammable) to A1 (non-combustible). Especially in safety-critical areas such as the façades of high-rise buildings or public buildings, the choice of an A1-classified material is crucial.

 

As the world's first composite material with an A1 classification, ALPOLIC™ NC/A1 aluminium composite panel offers unparalleled fire protection performance that meets the highest safety requirements:

 

✔ Maximum fire protection:

   Tested in extensive large-scale fire tests and SBI tests by certified institutes.

 

✔ Reduced fire residues: 
   The debris of ALPOLIC™ NC/A1 is considerably lower and also significantly lighter than comparable façade claddings made of solid aluminium.

 

✔ Lowest calorific value (PCS value): 
   ALPOLIC™ NC/A1 has by far the lowest PCS value (8 MJ/m2) compared to other façade materials.
