Reaction to Fire

Kingspan SH-Design is manufactured from solid aluminium.

Solid aluminium with a standard 60 micron polyester powder coating (PPC) finish from the Kingspan Colours & Coatings range has a Reaction to Fire Classification of A2-s1, d0 when tested in accordance with EN 13501-1.

Anodised aluminium is an aluminium alloy with an inorganic coating and therefore classified as A1 in accordance with EN 13501-1 without further testing as outlined in EU Commission Decision 96/603/EC.

For further information, please contact Kingspan Tech-eXchange.

The warranty offerings for our polyester powder coated aluminium SH-Design façade systems can vary dependent on a number of influencing factors that can include:

• Grade of aluminium of rainscreen panel;

• Chosen colour and finish;

• Required matt to gloss levels;

• Locations of the building; and

• Environmental factors.
  

Standard coating warranty periods of up to 25 years are available and are subject to confirmation of the above factors by application prior to order to confirm coating specification.
