With the findings of the Grenfell Inquiry continuing to reshape building practices across the UK, the annual construction show at Olympia is this year doubling in size and being refocused as the London Build Fire & Security Expo (November 20-21st) with insulation specialist Marmox UK Ltd on hand to demonstrate its Fireboard product on Stand L42. The Marmox Stone Wool based product is suitable for both internal and external wall insulation (IWI/EWI) applications.
Externally the A1 non-combustible certified Fireboard can serve as a weatherproof render-backer, or be used internally across walls and ceilings to take a plaster finish, while providing sound absorption properties, along with thermal insulation. With a nominal density of 150 kg/m3 the boards’ core material offers a compressive strength of 90kPa (9 tonnes/m2), while its high insulation performance will help combat thermal-bridging and the formation of surface condensation, as well as having the potential to cut energy bills.
As detailed in its A5 technical brochure which can be downloaded, Marmox Fireboard has been tested to prove compliance with BS EN 1182, EN 1716 and EN13823 (Resistance to fire test) conducted by UKTC, along with other testing completed by the BRE. www.marmox.co.uk
