Is Class a Frp Fire Rated

While Class C FRP panels have a flame spread rating of 200, Class A has a flame spread rating of just 25, meaning that if ignited, the flames will spread much, much slowly, and if the source of ignition is removed, the material has a chance of self-extinguishing entirely.

Does FRP have a fire rating?

These panels are made of fiberglass reinforced plastic, and are durable, flexible, and will not mold, mildew, rot, or corrode. They provide excellent resistance to mild chemicals and moisture, and have a Class C rating for flame spread and smoke development when tested per ASTM E-84.

What is class A fire rated?

Class A fire ratings indicate a flame spread rating somewhere between zero and 25. Materials that fall into Class A or Class 1 include things like brick, gypsum wallboard, and fiber cement exterior materials. These materials do not burn well and are very unlikely to contribute fuel to a fire.
