Choose the assembly first
Identify the protected element and the construction detail. A partition board, a steel encasement board and a duct enclosure may have different requirements.

Material Overview
A precise layer in the protection system.
Board-based protection offers a defined assembly approach for steel encasement, partitions and service enclosures. Performance depends on the whole construction: board type, thickness, number of layers, supports, joints and fixing arrangement. Match the proposed board to the intended system before selecting the cutting list.
Specification & Selection
The Details That
Shape Your Specification.
Product-family selection guidance. Final supply specifications and tested properties are agreed for the exact grade in its quotation and technical documents.
| Parameter | Selection information |
|---|---|
| Product format | Rigid protection board; mineral-board appearance shown |
| Face / edge appearance | Pale-grey matte face with visible mineral-textured cut edge |
| Application scope | Steel encasement, partitions, linings and service enclosures by system |
| Panel dimensions | Provide length × width × thickness in mm |
| Layer build-up | Single or multiple layers only as permitted by the selected design |
| Support construction | Identify steel framing, substrate and support spacing |
| Fixings | Type, spacing and edge distances follow the documented assembly |
| Joints / corners | Coordinate backing, joint treatment and corner reinforcement |
| Cutting schedule | List full sheets, cut pieces, openings and site waste separately |
| Supply unit | Boards or m², separated by thickness and grade |
Grade-Specific Evidence
Performance is documented.
Measured values and classifications are not inferred from these illustrations. Request the following for the proposed product:
- Assembly fire-resistance report and application scope
- Density, flexural properties and dimensional tolerances
- Moisture behaviour and reaction-to-fire classification
Application Perspective
Board-based steel encasement
Resolve the perimeter
Draw supports, corners, joints and all service openings. Changing the fixings or joint configuration may change the suitability of a tested assembly.
Protect the boards in transit
Confirm pallet layout, edge protection, dry storage and handling requirements. Provide a thickness-by-thickness cutting schedule to support a clearer material estimate.
Practical Questions
Before You Order.
Useful answers for a better material enquiry.
Is a board thickness alone enough to establish a rating?
No. The rating relates to a complete documented assembly, including board grade, layers, supports, joints and fixings.
Can boards be cut for service openings?
Provide the opening schedule and service details. Each opening must be addressed within the selected construction and firestop design.
What information is needed for a quote?
Application, panel sizes, thickness or tested build-up, quantity, cutting needs, destination and required documentation.
