Mineral Fibre External Wall Insulation Systems

PermaRock Mineral Fibre external wall insulation (EWI) systems are high-performance thermal insulation systems suited for application onto all building types, especially multi-storey buildings where the highest levels of fire resistance and non-combustibility are required.

Incorporating non-combustible mineral fibre (stonewool) insulation (Euroclass A1 – BS EN 13501-1:2007 + A1:2009), systems with an A2-s1,d0 classification in accordance with BS EN 13501- 1:2007 +A1:2009 are tested and accredited for use on high rise buildings, including those with floor levels above 11 metres above ground level.

PermaRock Mineral Fibre systems with PermaRock SiliconeUltra K 1.5mm, Mineral K 2.0mm, Brick Slip , Brick Effect Render and Dry Dash Finishes are class A2-s1,d0 to BS EN 13501-1:2007 + A1:2009*.
