FIRETITE^® Class A Fire Rated Insulation

FIRETITE insulation consists of 90% inorganic minerals and 10% organic components and is classified as a limited combustibility A2-s1,d0 construction material suitable for high rise buildings above 18m. FIRETITE achieves a smoke propagation indicator of s1 and a d0 rating for non-flaming droplets or particles as part of the overall A2 classification.

FIRETITE has a rated thermal conductivity value of 0.034W/mK.

FIRETITE is water repellent.

Its open-pored structure allows water vapour to evaporate. The product also has a certain capacity to store vapour, thereby regulating moisture in the surrounding area helping contribute to better indoor climate.

The product is suitable for new build or refurbishment cavity walls where wall construction is open to vapour diffusion. 

FIRETITE is a self-sealing product and sets immediately after application, adhering to both itself and the masonry cavity walls. The flow properties of the product ensures it fills the cavity seamlessly.

FIRETITE is a mechanically blown foam with pressurized air, meaning the foam does not contain internal propellants which might otherwise cause internal pressure built up. It does not emit pollutants – neither while drying or while the foam remains in the hollow layer. FIRETITE achieves the best EMICODE emission classification of EC1 plus.

The production and installation of components uses very low energy. Waste material can be disposed with construction waste. FIRETITE has a very low carbon footprint determined within the Environmental Product Declaration (EPDBAS- 20180124-IBA1-EN).

The mixing process results in a finished FIRETITE product that is up to 10 times it’s original liquid volume, saving on transportation and storage. The product is fully expanded before injected into the cavity and does not cause any internal pressure on the cavity.

The system is solely water based. While drying the pores open and the foam is open for diffusion.

FIRTITE is installed by trained contracting crews from the exterior of the building at a rate of approximately 100m2 per day.
