Novia FlamePro A1 FR
Our Fire Classification A1, reflective AVCL suitable for high rise applications
Product Overview
Novia® FlamePro A1 FR is a premium quality, high performance, reflective Air & Vapour Control Layer (AVCL) and is A1 fire rated. Novia® FlamePro A1 FR complies with EN 13501-1 Fire Classification A1 and is approved for use in high rise applications. Novia® FlamePro A1 FR has excellent moisture vapour resistance, and is suitable for use in any insulated wall or roof application where high moisture vapour resistance is required. Due to the use of high performance materials, Novia® FlamePro A1 FR will provide a very low moisture vapour permeability solution, but is also airtight, which improves the thermal performance of the building. The product is reflective on one side, white on the reverse, with no text or images.
For projects that require an low cost fire rated solution, for use within both standard and high rise constructions where a vapour check membrane is required we offer Novia® VariCheck FR, which has a Class B-s1, d0 Fire Classification. For projects that require a enhanced water vapour resistance in high rise constructions, we offer Novia® VC4000 FR, which has a Class B-s1, d0 Fire Classification. See datasheet for more product specific information.
For projects that also require a fire rated breather membrane which complies to EN 13501-1, we also offer Novia® FR Breather and Novia® UV Facade FR. They have a B-s1,d0 Fire Classification and are approved for use in high rise applications. See datasheet for more product specific information.

Installation Tips
Installation guidelines can be found on individual product datasheets using the links on this page. Novia AVCLs will only perform correctly if properly installed. It is therefore essential to use Novia AVCL tapes, as part of a two-tape sealing system.
For FlamePro A1 we recommend the use of Novia 30mm wide Double Sided Butyl tape and Novia 96mm wide BS 476 Cold Weather Foil Lap tape for all airtight installations. In addition, Novia® Airseal 310 FR AVCL sealant can be used in all applications where additional sealing is required, for example internal corners, floor sections or window reveals.
