Product Overview
The IG Brick Panel System is a prefabricated and A1 fire-rated brick slip panel system which can be used on all building heights and types.
The interlocking panels are prefabricated components and are delivered to site complete with brick slips adhesively bonded and mechanically secured to the brick carrier unit.
These BBA-certified panels are manufactured completely from A1 fire rated materials and are Approved Document B:Fire Safety compliant.
Application
Brick soffits and deep reveals are increasingly popular with architects who want to add depth and visual flair to a masonry façade. IG’s Brick Panel System offers a solution that delivers the desired aesthetic, with a hidden substructure that creates the impression of unsupported brickwork.
The IG Brick Panel System is satisfactory for use on external and internal soffits of buildings. The interlocking panels remove the need for brick cutting or bonding slips onsite. For added security, the brick slips are secured to the brick carrier with a robust and patented mechanical fix.
Each panel fixes to a subframe, which must be designed by a qualified design engineer suit the building type. Once pointed, the IG Brick Panel System blends with the surrounding traditional brickwork, achieving both design intent and performance requirements.
Product Design and Testing
IG’s Brick Panel System has been independently assessed by the British Board of Agrément to evaluate and validate the physical performance and long term durability of all components as well as ensure the products are fit for purpose and conform to regulations.
Key factors assessed by the British Board of Agrément include:
- Properties in relation to fire – All components of the system are classified as A1 in accordance with BS EN 13501-1:2018 and its use is unrestricted in terms of building height and distance to the boundary by the National Building Regulations.
- Thermal performance – Where the system is used around opening head junctions it can adequately limit heat loss.
- Condensation risk – Where the system is used around opening heads, the risk of interstitial condensation will be minimal.
- Durability – Provided that the system is designed, installed and used in accordance with its BBA Certificate, it will have a service life of at least 60 years.
