Certification and Testing
Reaction to Fire
QuadCore KS1000RW Roof Panels are classified B-s1,d0, when tested on the internal face of the product, according to the European Reaction to Fire classification system (Euroclasses) BS EN 13501-1: 2018 under the certified name QuadCore KS1000RW when using the following internal liners: CLEANsafe 15, CLEANsafe 25, CLEANsafe 55, CLEANsafe 120 and AQUAsafe 55. Please contact Kingspan Tech-eXchange for information relating to the external face.
Roof Applications
QuadCore KS1000RW Roof Panels are tested to:
Broof(t4) to BS EN 13501-5: 2016 under the certified name KS1000RW for panel thicknesses 40 - 167mm and roof pitch of 0° - 10°. Broof(t4) to BS EN 13501-5: 2016 under the certified name KS1000RW for panel thicknesses 40 - 167mm and roof pitch of >10°.
Fire Resistance
Fire resistance classifications are subject to panel thickness, orientation, method of assembly, and steel coating. Please contact Kingspan Tech-eXchange for project specific details.
Insurer Approvals
QuadCore KS1000RW Roof Panels are tested to:
LPS 1181 Part 1: Issue 1.2 Requirements and tests for builtup cladding and sandwich panel systems for use as the external envelope of buildings certified to:
–LPS 1181-1 Grade EXT-B under the certified name QuadCore KS1000RW (Roof Panel) for thicknesses 40 - 150mm.
FM 4471 approval standard for class 1 roof panels under the certified name KS1000 RW for thicknesses 40 – 167mm.
FM 4880 approval standard for class 1 fire rating of building panels or interior finish materials under the certified name KS1000RW for thicknesses 40 - 167mm.
FM 4882 approval standard for class 1 interior wall and ceiling materials or systems for smoke sensitive occupancies under the certified name KS1000RW for thicknesses 40 - 167mm.
Insurer approvals are large scale testing regimes that provide objective third-party testing, which is underpinned by quarterly, bi-annual and annual factory surveillance audits (depending on the region) to verify compliance. Insurer approvals are subject to panel thickness, cover width, orientation, method of assembly, steel coating and manufacturing facility. Please contact Kingspan Tech-eXchange for further information.

Air Leakage
An air leakage rate of 3m³/hr/m² at 50Pa or less can be achieved when using Kingspan insulated roof and wall panels. For information on detailing required to achieve lower air leakage rates, please contact Kingspan Tech-eXchange.
