IKO Rubershield Fireguard Housewrap is a low flammability, vapour permeable membrane, for use within framed wall construction as a house wrap.
This vapour permeable breather membrane offers all the characteristics of the current IKO Rubershield range, but with the added benefit of fire retardant properties that self-extinguish if ignited; providing a solution in-line with Part B of the Approved Documents – Fire Regulations.
IKO Rubershield Fireguard Housewrap achieves a classification B-s1-d0 to BS EN13501-1, with a limited contribution to smoke production (s1), and forms no droplets when burnt (d0), providing a solution in-line with Part B – Fire Safety Regulations.
IKO Rubershield Fireguard Housewrap is suitable for use within most constructions and, when used with the IKO Rubershield lap and jointing tapes, this component product forms an airtight and watertight secondary barrier to liquid water and reduces smoke penetration to the construction.
