Fire Safety & Certification
AATIS/fr — Fire-Rated Aluminium Composite Panel
AATIS/fr is a fire-retardant aluminium composite panel manufactured with a mineral-filled, non-combustible core. Independently tested against fire standards from the United Kingdom, Germany, and the United States — covering exterior cladding, roof coverings, surface burning characteristics, and toxic fume emission. AATIS/fr has been specified on landmark public-sector and commercial projects across Thailand since 1997, including government buildings, transport infrastructure, and high-rise facades.

IDHL = Immediately Dangerous to Health Limit. Results below IDHL indicate the panel does not produce toxic fume concentrations hazardous to building occupants during a fire event.
Why these standards matter for Thai building projects
UBC 26-9
The standard most commonly referenced in Thai architect and engineer specifications for multi-storey exterior cladding. Passing this test qualifies AATIS/fr for facades on mid-rise and high-rise buildings throughout Thailand.
ASTM E84 Class A
The highest surface-burning classification under the US standard, indicating the panel contributes minimal fuel load to a fire. Required on many institutional, government, and hospitality specifications.
ISO-TR 9122-3
Toxic fume evaluation during burning. Increasingly required by government and institutional clients as part of occupant safety specifications, particularly for enclosed or semi-enclosed public spaces.
DIN 4102 Class B1
The German "schwer entflammbar" (flame-retardant) classification. Internationally recognised and frequently cited in Thailand's premium and international development projects where European standards are referenced.
ASTM E119 — 2 hours
The wall assembly resists fire penetration for two hours, directly relevant for projects requiring compartmentalisation between floors or zones — including hospitals, government buildings, and data centres.
BS 476 Class 0
Class 0 is the highest achievable rating under UK fire propagation testing — a benchmark frequently specified by architects trained under the British system, which remains common in Thailand's professional architectural community.
