Fire-retardant boards are used in commercial interiors where walls, ceilings or enclosures need to contribute to the building’s passive fire strategy.
What to consider
Products vary in composition and rating, so the board should always be specified as part of a tested system with the correct framing, fixings, joints and insulation. Using a fire-rated board alone does not guarantee that the completed wall will achieve the required performance.
Office refurbishments should coordinate fire protection with acoustics and services. Open ceiling voids, penetrations and doors can all undermine an otherwise well-built partition if the details are not addressed.
