POLYPHEN® IS SUITABLE FOR:

Coldstores and Warehouses (steel clad panels).
Office partitions.
Factory and housing insulation as well as hygienic building structures.
Pipe and vessel insulation.
Residential Applications, e.g. light weight wall cladding with rendered finish, and profile mouldings.

POLYPHEN ® has been tested by FM APPROVALS USA, the Building Research Association of New Zealand (BRANZ) as well as C.S.I.R.O. Government Research, Australia.

Factory Mutual UBC 26-3 Test (Room Test)
This test was performed with 250mm (10 inch) thick steel clad panels with very good results, meeting all requirements for an FM Class 1 fire rating (the highest classification for fire resistance). The panel design was standard tongue-and-groove, with 0.6mm steel skins.

Fire Rating to AS1530.4 (ASTM E 119, ISO834, BS476pt20-24):
A 2 hour Fire Rating has been achieved for 200mm thick Polyphen® sandwich panels, with 0.6mm steel both sides (tested by Warrington Fire Research).
