Foam core panels UAE: Fire-rated vs. Fire-retardant panels
Brief introduction
To make the right investment in foam core panels UAE, one needs to understand the different kinds of foam and their differences. Metal sandwich sheets are one of the expensive materials as compared to the other materials. Hence, you would not want to waste your money on the wrong things.
As the top sandwich panel suppliers of UAE (Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras-Al-Khaimah, Al’Ain & Fujairah), we have PU, PIR & Rockwool sandwich panels.
PIR and PU Foam are more or less the same but they are different in terms of their chemical composition and fire-resisting properties. PU panels are made with a B2/B3 fire classification of building materials. PIR panels, on the other hand, have better fire-resisting capabilities than PU panels.
However, people often get confused between the two.
To clear out your doubts, we have come up with this blog post so that next time when you buy sandwich panels in UAE, you buy them with confidence.
Difference between PI & PU Foam core panels in UAE with special reference to Fire-behavior
When buying sandwich panels, the flammability of the materials matters a lot. To be honest, one of the major concerns for UAE customers while buying sandwich panels is the flammability factor. There’ll be times when you have to be extremely cautious about fire safety. This is where you might get confused.
PIR Panels exhibits better fire performance than PU Panels, the main reason why the former is a preferred choice than the latter in most applications requiring high fire safety. As compared to PIR, PU foam produces excessive smoke.
Fire-retardant panels are poor conductors of heat, which means that they prove to be an effective choice in preventing fire accidents. However, PIR not only can stop the spread of fire but it burns itself after some time without causing any havoc to the surrounding areas.
This fire behavior superiority in PIR sandwich sheets is because they have excess Isocyanate contents. The more the presence of Isocyanate, the greater is the concentration of urethane bonds and the better is the fire performance.
