Using acoustic wood panels and external timber cladding panel systems has become more challenging in terms of compliance over the last 6-7 years, with large commercial projects requiring full and transparent testing of full assembled composite panel systems. This means that the quality, testing and traceability of product manufacturing is more important than ever.
With BCL timber panels and our associated flexible grids and fixing systems, we have spent the time and resources in fire testing wooden slat panels and conducting acoustic tests to provide the best in class market offering, that not only ensures exceptional safety and quality, but crucially minimizes the commercial risk to all major parties (Architect, main / sub contractor, end user client).
We have pre-tested options for both wood ceilings and vertical wooden slatted walls, using beautiful EU & UK grown timber species, with full EN13501-1 testing to either Class B-s2,d0 or Class C-s2,d0 in UKAS accredited labs only, not overseas (where laboratories, in the eyes of UK legislation are essentially ‘unaccredited’)
These same timber paneling comes in either Class C acoustic rating or Class A acoustic rating, fully tested to ISO 11654, so that you can not only meet your fire requirements but also offer varying acoustic performance, with zero commercial compliance risk.
All BCL wooden slatted panels come with full verified EPDs and ISO accredited LCA carbon calculations of not only ‘cradle-to-gate’ A1-A3 global warming potential, but full life cycle at each stage, right through to cradle-to-grave and recycling services for end of life scenarios.
