What are some common applications for Fireproof Insulation 25mm Calcium Silicate Board?

Fireproof Insulation 25mm Calcium Silicate Board are widely applications due to their properties like:

High fire resistance

Calcium silicate boards are non-combustible and have an A1 Euroclass fire rating. They can withstand high temperatures and help contain fires.

Low heat transfer

They have good thermal insulation properties with a thermal conductivity of around 0.08 W/mK, which helps limit heat transfer.

Moisture resistance

The boards have low water absorption, making them suitable for damp environments.

Dimensional stability

Calcium silicate boards maintain their shape and dimensions at high temperatures.

Easy to install

They are available in sheets and easy to cut and fix mechanically.

Common applications for 25mm calcium silicate boards as fireproof insulation include:

Fire compartmentation

Used in internal walls and floors to compartmentalize buildings into fire cells and limit the spread of fire.

Firestopping

Installed behind services passing through fire compartment walls to maintain the fire resistance of the wall.

Fire doors

Used as an infill material between the door frame and leaf to maintain the fire resistance rating of the door.

Ceilings

Installed below false and suspended ceilings to improve their fire resistance and contain any fires above the ceiling.

Ductwork insulation

Used to insulate air ducts to maintain their fire resistance rating and prevent the spread of fire through ventilation systems.

Pipe insulation

Insulated around fire rated pipes to maintain their fire resistance and limit heat transfer to the pipe in case of fire.

Fire escapes

Used to line fire escape stairwells and passageways to improve their fire resistance and contain any smoke or flames.
