Fire safety is one of the top priorities for any public or commercial building, and the EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panel has passed strict global fire safety tests to meet the highest industry standards. Many people mistakenly assume that EPS core materials are flammable, but the specially treated expanded polystyrene inside the EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panel is encapsulated by two layers of 12mm thick non-combustible fiber cement boards, creating a barrier that delays flame spread for more than 4 hours.
Independent lab tests show that when exposed to 1000°C high temperature, the EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panel does not produce toxic smoke or collapse suddenly, giving residents and firefighters enough time to evacuate the building safely. This performance makes the EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panel fully compliant with EU EN 13501-1 Class A2 fire safety standards and US ASTM E119 requirements, making it suitable for use in schools, hospitals, shopping malls, and apartment buildings.
Unlike lightweight steel wall systems that may deform rapidly under high heat, the EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panel maintains its structural integrity during a fire, preventing the spread of flames between adjacent rooms and reducing overall property damage.
