Corex A1


Kemwell Corex A1

A building with a steel frame system should withstand fire, without losing its integrity during the fire, at least for long enough to evacuate people from the building. To achieve this, the load-bearing steel columns and beams must maintain their integrity at high temperatures for long periods without losing their carrying capacity and integrity. Steel encased with Kemwell Corex A1 can maintain their load-bearing capacity for between 15 and 240 minutes.

The core of Kemwell Corex A1 is reinforced with special additives to enhance fire resistance. Both sides of Kemwell Corex A1 are covered with a completely non-flammable fibreglass mat, meaning the board is classified as A1 non-combustible in accordance with EN 13501-1.

 Application
 Kemwell Corex A1 is a A1 non-combustible gypsum board for applications where superior fire performance is required.
