NFPA 285 passed ACP panel A2 is the first non-combustible aluminium composite panel used in architecture that fulfils the respective standards worldwide. Thanks to its mineral core, ACP panel A2 meets the strict requirements of some of the toughest fire regulations while retaining the possibilities for the concept and design of buildings.

25/5/2016· NFPA 285 is a test of the entire wall assembly – from inside air to outside air – not of any single component. In fact, a single component can be responsible for a failed test. For example, a wall assembly insulated with expanded styrene foam may fail the test because the styrene burns, even if all the other components are highly fire-retardant.
