Fire Grade HPL/ACP

Fire-retardant (FR) materials have become an ingredient in modern construction. With more and more skyscrapers towering towards the skies in bustling cities, fire protection has taken center stage across the world. Using Genuine FR material is critical to safety in the Fire Rated Construction System.

A typical ACP-cladded facade in India has a frame structure comprising a non-load-bearing brick wall followed by plaster, steel frame and an ACP envelope fixed on the frame As an important criterion for resistance to fire, the ACP envelope should contain fire and retain its structural integrity up to 2 hours. But that's not the only feature that contributes to fire protection. An authentic rating for resistance to fire also takes into account that smoke kills faster than fire, among other vital factors. This is where Alutuff FR ACP- Fireshield stands above the rest.




The Core Secret

Fireshield is a non halogenated FR material that produces water vapour when ts heat up. It does hot produce toxic gases like the halogenated materials. Magnesium Hydroxide MDH is the nor-halogenated material that s mixed with PE to form the core of Alutuff FR products. MDH has a better fire resistance performance than Aluminium Trihydrate (ATH). Transformation from solid to plastic (the pont of ignition up to 360 by releasing water molecules and bringing down the temperature continuously.


Core Details Polyethylene Magnesiun Hydroxide(MDH) Aluminium Trihydrate
Chemical Reaction CH2 + O2 = CO2 + H2O Mg(OH)2 = MgO + H2O 2Al(OH)3 = A1203 + 3H20
Decomposition temperature 900C to 1100C 3100C to 3600C 1900C to 2400C

The State of the Art FR Grade ACP Production Unit.

Alutuff the end-to-end production facility is fireproof and completes with global standards. The one production unit, spread over 25,000 sqm at Bareilly, is equipped with up-to-date technology and testing facilities. The stringent quality control system keeps a sharp eye on each and every unit process.




Hauling, Handling & Storage

To ensure there is no damage to the edges or surface of the high-end material (Facia, HPL panels), please handle them with extreme care. During the process of transporting the panels, they should be protected well against slipping. Make sure that the panels are lifted securely while handling or unloading them. Kindly avoid pulling or pushing them over the edge. It's important to remove the protective film within 45 day of installation. The panels must be stocked parallel to the ground on flat and stable supporting panels. They should be in completely flat position. Erroneously storing the panels can lead to permanent damage or deformation.




What Makes Us Unique




The Trusted Choice

Alutuff Fireshield having more than 71% mineral content and made with AA5005/AA3105 alloy, is a tried and tested non-halogenated FR ACP which :

  • Will not produce toxic gases that cause death. 80% of death in a fire accident is caused by smoke which is a dreadful combination of CO and Co2.
  • Will not blur vision and thus make it easy for people to get out via the escape routes.
  • Will not release excessive heat onto other materials that can cause fire.
