The Benefits of Sisalation®
Temperature Control: Sisalation® has proved
effective and beneficial in building in the comfort
factor, keeping the home and workplace cooler in summer
and warmer in winter. This increases the productivity of
workers in factories and industrial and commercial buildings.
Fire testing
The superior fire retardant properties incorporated into
Sisalation® FR430 will satisfy most insurance requirements.
Tested in accordance with SANS 10177, SANS 428 &
ASTM E84.
Product Fire Classification
Sisalation® FR430 has been tested according to SANS
10177:
Part 5 - Non combustiblity at 750˚C
Part 9 - Small scale fire properties using the vertical
channel test
Part 10 - Fire propagation properties using 7,4 metre
inverted channel tunnel test
Part 11 - Fire propagation properties using the large
scale application facility (with and without sprinklers)
for horizontal and vertical applications.
Fire performance classification:
B/B1/2/H&V (with and without sprinklers)

Dustproofs: Keeping the building as dust free as
possible can be an important factor in reducing
allergens in the air we breathe, thus reducing allergy and
asthma symptoms.
Vapour Barrier: Sisalation ® prevents moisture
being introduced into the ceiling by outside
weather conditions such as rain, humidity or condensation.
Fire Retardant
Aluminium Foil Insulation
Fire: Sisalation® fire retardant products have
been tested by Firelab and have a fire performance
classification of B/B1/2/H&V - with and without sprinklers.
Economical: Easy to install Sisalation® is
maintenance free and long-lasting. Used as an
exposed roof lining, lighting is greatly improved due to the foil’s
high reflectivity. And, because Sisalation® saves money through
reduced electricity usage it will pay for itself... over and over again!
Environmentally-friendly: The use of Sisalation®
will impact positively on the environment. It
helps reduce environmental pollution and the consumption
of natural resources and also reduces noise pollution. Not
only does it reduce greenhouse gas emissions it also contains
no ozone depleting substances.

Sisalation® FR 430 is a heavy duty, durable, double sided,
reflective foil laminate incorporating advanced fire retardant
properties.
Product function
Sisalation® FR 430 when used in conjunction with an
airspace is an effective thermal insulating membrane due
to the high reflectivity and low emissive properties of its
aluminium foil surfaces.

Gross mass ±13,7 kg
Insulation maintains a constant and comfortable temperature
in a building by preventing heat transfer between indoor and
outdoor climates, keeping the heat in during winter and out
during summer.

Resistance to Acids and Alkalis:
Sisalation® must not be used in contact with wet
concrete or exposed continuously to corrosive
environment.
Resistance to Copper:
Sisalation® must not come into contact with copper

surfaces, due to electrolytic action.
UNINSULATED
This combination makes Sisalation® an excellent barrier to
heat flow via radiation.

Permanence:
Excellent in normal building applications,
however extended direct outdoor exposure is not
recommended . Should unusual conditions exist, the
suitability of the material should be established by
contacting a technical representative of the company.
