Fire protection

We frequently use timber façade cladding for contemporary architecture for environmental compatibility. This is not only due to the various techniques used to preserve timber, but also due to the huge range on offer, which means that everyone can find a look that matches the appearance of the building.

 

One of the challenges of timber façades is to meet the requirements of the necessary reaction to fire classification.

Statutory requirements

To limit or delay the spreading of fires via the wooden façade, the Royal Decree imposes various requirements with regard to the reaction to fire of wooden façade cladding in its end-use conditions (in other words, as present on site).

 

This means that when assessing the reaction to fire of the wooden façade cladding, one must take into account the potential influence of the underlying material layers and the way in which they are fastened.
