Panel build-up, core, thicknesses, coating system, mechanical properties and the A2-s1,d0 fire classification.
The most-specified aluminium composite panel for UAE facades: A2 limited-combustibility core, Civil Defence compliant, made in the Emirates.
ALUCOPANEL® A2: the most-specified ACP grade in the UAE
ALUCOPANEL® A2 is a limited-combustibility aluminium composite panel classified A2-s1,d0 to EN 13501-1, the grade most commonly specified and approved for UAE facades, balancing genuine fire performance with workability and value.
Its mineral-rich core sits just below A1 on the reaction-to-fire scale while producing very low smoke (s1) and no flaming droplets (d0). For the majority of UAE Civil Defence facade submissions, A2 is the practical, compliant choice, manufactured locally with full test documentation on every batch.

Why A2 is the UAE default
Civil Defence compliant
A2-s1,d0 meets UAE Fire & Life Safety Code requirements for the majority of facade applications.
Low smoke, no droplets
s1 smoke and d0 droplet ratings mean minimal smoke development and no burning fall-out in a fire.
Workable & economical
Routs, folds and fabricates like standard ACP, with better value than full A1 for most projects.
Made in the Emirates
Locally manufactured with batch traceability and Mill Test Certificates (MTC) supplied with every order.
A2 or A1 for your project?
Both are Civil Defence recognised. Compare the full fire-class range side by side or send us your facade build-up for a grade recommendation.
Frequently asked questions
What does A2-s1,d0 mean?
It is the EN 13501-1 reaction-to-fire classification: A2 = limited combustibility, s1 = very low smoke production, d0 = no flaming droplets or particles. It is one step below the fully non-combustible A1 class.
Is A2 ACP accepted by UAE Civil Defence?
Yes. A2-s1,d0 aluminium composite panel is accepted for the majority of facade applications under the UAE Fire & Life Safety Code. Confirm the specific class required for your building height and occupancy with your fire consultant.
Should I choose A2 or A1?
A1 is fully non-combustible and used where codes, insurers or fire engineers require the top class, typically the tallest or highest-risk buildings. A2 is the most-specified grade for general UAE facades and offers better workability and value.
What colours and finishes are available in A2?
ALUCOPANEL® A2 is coil-coated and available across our full standard and custom colour range, plus metallic, wooden and stone-look finishes on request.
