SchücoFlam® CLT consists of two ESG panes which are joined by a transparent alkaline interlayer which foams in the case of fire. If the interlayer is exposed to fire, it becomes opaque, foams and creates an insulating heatshield.
The transmission of radiant heat is substantially reduced - for a certain time (ca. 15 minutes) even the insulating criteria are fulfilled. The interlayer creates a room-protection barrier against fire, smoke and heat, toxic gases, and holds for up to 120 mintes depending on the design. The foamed interlayer prevents a view of the fire, and avoids panic reactions. It also alerts the emergency services to the location of the fire.
SchücoFlam® CLT is suitable for internal as well as external use. It can be used in fire protection doors, separating walls, fire protection windows, facades, and roof constructions.
