fermacell® Firepanel A1 - The new dimension in fire protection

The fire protection board fermacell® Firepanel A1 consists mainly of gypsum and paper fibers, which are obtained from paper in a recycling process. The even better fire protection properties for the building material and the component are made possible by the expanded formulation and the replacement of a certain proportion of paper fibers with non-combustible material.

The natural raw materials are mixed and after the addition of water - without further binding agents - pressed under high pressure into stable boards, dried, surface hydrophobized on both sides and cut to the required sizes. Water causes the gypsum to react, penetrates and envelops the fibres. This results in the high stability and non-combustibility of the highest European building material class A1 according to DIN EN 13501-1 and national DIN 4102-1.

Due to its material composition, the fermacell® Firepanel A1 is a fire protection, construction and moisture-proof panel at the same time, which has homogeneous panel properties on both sides. It offers all known properties of the fermacell® gypsum fibre board in dry construction with better fire protection properties for the building material and the building component.


Safe, tested and economical

Building material class A1
The new fermacell® Firepanel A1 fire protection panel belongs to the highest European building material class A1 according to DIN EN 13501-1 and national according to DIN 4102-1. fermacell Firepanel A1 panels can therefore be used wherever cladding of building material class A1 is required for structural fire protection.

CE marking
Firepanel A1 panels are manufactured, tested and marked (CE marking) according to the European standard for fibre-reinforced gypsum boards DIN EN 15283-2.

The fermacell® Firepanel A1 offers all known properties of the fermacell® gypsum fibre board for drywall construction. It is used indoors with even more efficient fire protection properties for the building material and the component.

Areas of application are exemplary:

 

  • Assembly walls with metal substructure
  • Shaft walls and facing shells
  • suspended ceilings


fermacell® Firepanel A1 gypsum fibre boards are particularly economical because only one type of board is required for finishing, fire protection and damp rooms.
