XFLAM Fire Resistant Panels

Fire resistant panels

XFLAM doesn’t break down in fire, meaning it doesn’t spread; damage is confined to the immediate areas of fire impact. Combustion is restricted to small clean burning cells creating very little smoke production, contributing to overall safety for occupants, firefighters and the property.

Piece of mind

XFLAM comes with a conditional warranty on request for a completed project. Approved project warranties may have a term of up to 36 years for materials and 2 years for workmanship. Not all applications are warrantable.

Thermal performance

XFLAM achieves higher insulation rating than EPS. Very low water transmission rates ensure XFLAM can be used in any application previously regarded as the preserve of EPS, PUR, and PIR panel. The high thermal resistance of XFLAM reduces heat flow through walls and ceilings leading to reduced energy consumption, comfortable interior conditions and lower environmental impact.

XFLAM meets the NZ and Australian building codes for fire resistance

Value for money

Dollar for dollar XFLAM achieves better thermal resistance  (R - value) than PIR and PUR systems; savings of up to 30% can be made when calculating the costs of the panel system and the appropriate structural supporting elements together.

The inherent speed of build with XFLAM panelised systems is further enhanced by reduction of structural elements contributing to time and material efficiencies. Value comes from these savings in construction on top of already superior insulation and genuine fire resistance.

Extra strong

Structural costs can be significantly reduced through using XFLAM panel, in comparison to other building materials and insulated panels. It has superior mechanical properties to EPS, PIR, PUR and mineral wool, spanning up to 30% further than PIR and PUR, reducing the cost of supporting structures and freeing up internal spaces.

XFLAM provides extra strength and rigidity that enables long spans and can be used as a structural unit in commercial and residential construction.

Sustainable

No blowing agents are used in the manufacture of XFLAM. XFLAM waste can be returned to the manufacturing process, and because it’s made locally the carbon footprint of transport is minimal. Its advanced insulation ratings ensure the energy consumption is reduced preserving the natural resources of the planet.

Seismic resilience

The lightweight nature of XFLAM panel ensures that in the event of an earthquake the lateral loadings are minimal. Occupant safety is high and property damage is negligible due to the high bracing capacity and the inherent strength of the steel skins and XFLAM core.
