Acoustic insulation in aluminum ceilings—mineral wool or fiberglass—doubles as a thermal barrier, complementing fire-rated assemblies when tested together.
Fire-rated ceilings integrate tested assemblies—panels, insulation, sealants, and suspension systems—to satisfy local and international building codes for fire safety.
Many fire-rated ceiling systems, when installed with smoke-seals and gasketed grid accessories, provide combined fire and smoke barriers tested to ASTM E283 or EN 13501-2 S classifications.
Sí—by using fire-rated light housings, collars, and maintaining proper clearances and sealants as tested in the assembly to preserve ceiling integrity.
When paired with proper intumescent layers, insulation, and tested grid systems, lightweight aluminum panels can achieve 1- to 2-hour fire ratings despite their low mass.
Properly engineered aluminum ceiling systems—with intumescent layers, insulation, and tested suspension hardware—can achieve both 1-hour and 2-hour fire ratings.
Perforated aluminum panels can be integrated into fire-rated ceilings when paired with suitable intumescent backing, insulation, and tested as part of a complete assembly.
Декоративная отделка—ПВДФ, порошковое покрытие или пленки с тиснением под дерево—не ухудшают огнестойкость при нанесении на огнестойкие алюминиевые панели, испытанные как единое целое.
Fire-rated aluminum ceilings, when installed per code (60–120 min rating, smoke seals, slip-resistant finishes), are ideal for protected evacuation corridors and stairwells.
