Fire Retardant ACP

ALUCOPANEL FR Fire-Retardant ACP

A fire-retardant aluminium composite panel for UAE mid-rise and commercial facades, mineral-modified FR core, strong value, made in the Emirates.

ALUCOPANEL FR: fire-retardant ACP for mid-rise and commercial

ALUCOPANEL FR is a fire-retardant aluminium composite panel with a mineral-modified core engineered to resist ignition and slow flame spread, a strong-value choice for UAE mid-rise, commercial and signage-grade facades where the project does not call for full A1/A2 non-combustibility.

FR delivers the clean lines, flatness and coating durability of premium ACP with improved fire behaviour over standard panels. Where your fire strategy permits a fire-retardant grade, FR offers the best balance of cost, fabrication ease and performance, made in the Emirates with documentation on every batch.

Easy to fabricate

Routs, folds and forms cleanly for cassettes, panels and signage on standard ACP tooling.

Made in the Emirates

Local production, short lead times and full test documentation with every order.

Need a higher fire class?

If your building requires non-combustible cladding, step up to A2 or A1. Compare all three grades or send us your fire strategy for advice.

Frequently asked questions

What is fire-retardant (FR) ACP?

FR aluminium composite panel uses a mineral-modified core engineered to resist ignition and slow flame spread compared with standard PE-core panels. It is suited to applications where the fire strategy permits a fire-retardant rather than fully non-combustible grade.

Is FR ACP allowed on UAE buildings?

It depends on building height, occupancy and the project fire strategy. Many mid-rise and commercial applications permit FR, while high-rise and high-risk facades require A2 or A1. Always confirm with your fire consultant against the UAE Fire & Life Safety Code.

What thicknesses does ALUCOPANEL FR come in?

FR is available in 3 mm and 4 mm, in standard widths of 1220, 1250 and 1500 mm and lengths up to 5800 mm, with custom sizes on request.

Can FR be colour-matched to A2 panels?

Yes. FR shares our colour and finish range, so it can be matched across mixed-grade facades where different areas use different fire classes.
