Description
Description
Fire Rated Group 2 Plywood is an innovative, lightweight plywood engineered for superior fire resistance in construction projects. Certified as Building Code of Australia (BCA) Fire Hazard Group Number 2, this advanced total wood product is ideal for wall and ceiling linings in Class 2-9 buildings. Its unique fire-retardant properties are achieved through veneer impregnation prior to plywood production, ensuring the entire product, not just the exterior, offers enhanced fire resistance.
Crafted from European Poplar, Fire Rated Group 2 Plywood boasts a density of 460-520 kg/m³ and a moisture content of 6-14%. It's designed for easy machining and can be readily cut, drilled, and shaped using standard woodworking tools.
While certified to AS 5637.1:2015 using ISO 9075-2003 as the primary test method, it also demonstrates excellent results in AS 1530.3 tests. Fire Rated Group 2 Plywood is available certified PEFC 100% and features low formaldehyde emissions, meeting E1 certification standards.
Fire Rated Group 2 Plywood combines advanced fire safety technology with the natural beauty and workability of wood. Its dimensional stability, ease of use, and multi-faceted performance make it an ideal choice for projects where fire resistance, sustainability, and versatility are essential. Whether for commercial, educational, or healthcare settings, this plywood offers a reliable, high-quality solution for modern construction needs.
