PAROC AST E exterior wall panels receive approval

 

The first panel manufacturer, who has tested its panels in the new extended test rig, is Paroc Panel System, where up to 6.1m long panels can be tested. The actual test consisted of three separate test phases, which were passed successfully.

The FM4881 approval has been received according to approval standard for AST E Exterior Wall Panels for these products: 

  • panel type AST E 175-240mm for a single span of max 6.1m 
  • panel type AST E 120-240mm for a single span of max 3.05m or multi-span 3.05m.  
  • "severe hail" (FH) rating 

"High quality, strength and fire safety of PAROC panels are the well-known benefits on the market already," Export Manager Tom Österlund stated.

Österlund added: "By optimising the need of support structures for the panels, the total construction costs will decrease. This is of interest to building owners and contractors as well as lower insurance premiums are. This approval will support our effort to remain as the top fire proof stone wool panel supplier in our core market area."
