In public spaces, not everything goes. When it comes to acoustic conditioning, there are many solutions that promise an absorption that does not correspond and, moreover, pose an exponential problem for users. Beyond the decoration and the infinite possibilities of other raw materials that promise professional absorption, there is a problem that can be significant if a fire breaks out. In facilities such as offices, restaurants or similar, legal requirements demand products that comply with fire legislation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thus, in the event of an accident of this type, there are materials such as ISINAC's mineral foam that prevent the spread of fire and minimise personal injury. On the other hand, materials that will exponentially increase the risk to people's safety can easily be found on the market at a very low price and with a dubious origin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to choose the right fire prevention material, several aspects have to be taken into account: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. The time it takes for the flame to ignite once exposed to fire.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Whether or not it emits toxic fumes during combustion.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Whether or not it releases droplets in the process of disintegration by fire. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    This is how construction products are classified under the UNE-EN13501-1:2002 standard. Only products with classification A, B or C; S1 or S2; and D0, meet this requirement to be legally installed in public spaces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    ISINAC certifies that all its raw materials and final products comply with these requirements thanks to the most prestigious laboratories in the market. Below, you can see how the most commonly used acoustic materials on the market react when exposed to fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
