A Shield Of Steel Providing The Highest Levels Of Protection

Durasteel is a 9.5mm thick composite panel fire protection board, comprised of a fibre-reinforced cement core mechanically bonded to punched steel sheets on both outer surfaces. It is classed as ‘noncombustible’ to BS 476: Part 4: 1970 and to Clause 10 of EN 13501-1: 2002, and is both highly impact and moisture resistant.

When fixed to a steel channel or angle framework, the Durasteel board forms part of a fully certified high performance fire protection system that has been rigorously tested all around the world to provide up to 4 hour fire integrity and insulation protection and blast protection.

Our systems have been developed and supported through continuous testing for use in barrier, ceilings, service enclosure, ventilation duct and door applications, with a wide range of specifications available.

Combining lightness, strength, impact, blast resistance and durability with exceptional fire resistance, Durasteel systems remain unaffected by firefighters’ hoses, leaving them capable of performing their original function even during a fire. They also offer up to 56dB of acoustic insulation for areas that also require noise reduction.
