Non-Combustible Rockwool Insulation for Partition Walls

Bradford Insulation Fireseal™ Party Wall Sealers are made from non-combustible Rockwool, which is specifically designed to meet the fire protection requirements for inter-tenancy walls in multi residential applications. Party walls are designed to reduce fire hazards by separating one dwelling from another to provide the building occupants with the maximum time to escape safely by maintaining sufficient structural adequacy, integrity and insulation. There are principally 3 key areas for reducing fire hazards:

Controlling fire within a compartment
Controlling the spread of fire between compartments through openings in external walls
Providing early warning to building occupants

The incorporation of the correct insulation products in the design of passive fire protection systems can save lives and also complement the installation of active fire protection equipment (i.e. sprinkler systems and fire alarms).

Bradford Fireseal Insulation – BCA provisions

The fire rated walls must maintain sufficient:

Structural adequacy – ability of a structure to maintain its stability and ability to hold up other parts of the structure.
Integrity – ability of a structure to resist the passage of flames and hot gases.
Insulation – ability of a structure to maintain a temperature below specified limits on the surface on the other side of the wall.
Bradford Fireseal Insulation – Party Wall Sealers

Party Wall insulation products need to have remarkable resistance to shrinkage at temperatures encountered in fire conditions. One of the most common materials for party wall insulation is Rockwool, such as Bradford’s Fireseal Party Wall insulation products, which are made from non-combustible Rockwool. Party Wall insulation products should be assessed in accordance with the general principles of AS1530.4, and need to be suitable for the stated FRL when designed in accordance with the relevant building and structural considerations, and installed in accordance with the manufacture’s details.
