FIRECRUNCH, MAGNESIUM SULPHATE NON METAL CORROSIVE MgO BOARD (MgSO4)
We are proud to present our NATA/ CSIRO fire tested and certified FireCrunch product range, with a Fire Resistance Level (FRL) of 90/90/90. This only requires 1 x 10 mm thick sheet per side of steel frame (1.15 BMT). V up to 2 and 3 layers of 16mm and 13mm Fyrchek plasterboard.
Through the development of various testing stages, it has allowed FireCrunch to provide totally reliable, Australian standards tested fireproof cladding, durable and eco-friendly building boards with a high class commercial finish.
FireCrunch can withstand temperatures of 2000⁰C which reinforces our quality in terms of protection of high-rise buildings and life, even from the most dangerous BAL FZ bushfire conditions.
BUSHFIRE AREA BUILDING
Through the name it might be noted that FireCrunch is a building board that offers security and peace of mind to people living in or rebuilding in bushfire zones. It does this through the use of innovative Magnesium Oxide and “Magnesium Sulphate” bushfire resistant building boards and materials that resist fire to up to 2000⁰C, all while being environmentally friendly and asbestos free.
AUSTRALIAN STANDARDS FIRE TESTED
The CSIRO have fire tested and certificated FireCrunch boards to a standard Fire Resistance Level (FRL) of 90/90/90, with these in depth and the most “aggressive” AS1530.4-2014 (C1..C19)-/ 2025 fire tests.
The FRL obtained with 1 x 10mm sheet is FRL 90/90/90 on light steel frame cold rolled formed bluescope steel, gauge 1.15 BMT and a 55kN load bearing on the BCA minimum 3m x 3m frame.
This is three times the level required for BAL FZ.
FireCrunch is proud of that result which ensures minimum cost for construction in bushfire areas right through to high rise residential and commercial construction where paramount concern is stability and safety.
It is important to build the correct housing for the appropriate locations and to minimise the risk of threats such as major bushfires. FireCrunch does exactly that!
Recognising how FireCrunch can be incorporated to the houses in bushfire prone areas is the first step to potentially being the difference between saving lives and even simply saving valuable personal belongings. FireCrunch eco-friendly building materials are also waterproof, flood proof, sound, impact, termite, mould, and bacteria resistant, while being Australia’s most eco-friendly cladding material.
We have incorporated these FIRE resistant factors by analysing current Australian construction standards and ensuring FireCrunch provides these important protections at affordable rates.
