Aertec AAC was specified as the material of choice for the fire wall dividing the newly constructed Agricol warehouse in Cape Town. The fire wall required a non-combustible material capable of achieving the required fire resistance rating for an industrial warehouse application, and AAC met this requirement with a superior fire rating compared to common masonry materials.
Fire walls in warehouse facilities carry significant life safety and insurance implications, requiring tested and certified materials with documented fire resistance ratings. Aertec AAC's non-combustible properties and SANS-certified performance data provided the specifying engineer with the technical assurance required for this critical application.
The project demonstrates Aertec AAC's growing adoption in industrial fire safety applications, where its non-combustible properties and certified performance data provide a technically superior alternative to conventional masonry fire walls.
