FIRE RESISTANCE WALL SYSTEM

Sandwich panels with insulating core in mineral wool, consist a reliable solution for façade claddings and for partition walls with requirements for increased performance against fire, maintaining at the same time a sufficient level of thermal insulation.
Due to its inorganic nature, the core material is non-combustible, and when exposed to fire it does not contribute to fire growth. In combination with the robust and thermal-bridge-free joint of Metecno wall panels, a fire resistant wall-cladding element is obtained, that is, a barrier against flames smoke and heat, preventing in this way fire from spreading to adjacent buildings, as well as from contaminating the surroundings of the building, while at the same time guarantying a safe passage for occupants to evacuate the building, and for rescue teams to offer their services.

The range of Metecno wall panels comes with a variety of surface profiling and a joint’s typology that allows both:

• vertical panels’ installation and
• horizontal panels’ installation

with both:

• visible fixing and
• concealed fixing

offering thus solutions that meet with a wide range of wall-cladding requirements.
