  • Specifically designed and tested for Vertical application.
  • Maintains fire-rated compartmentation lines through roof voids and difficult to access areas where flexibility is an advantage.
  • Tested to BS 476 parts 6 and 7 – Pass (propagation and surface spread of flame).
  • Lightweight, flexible, easy to handle and cut.
  • Installer-friendly fire barrier system.
