A1 gives you the freedom to create your own façade design. Not only can A1 imitate expressions like bricks, concrete, wood or even natural stone but this can be done in almost any complex form and shape.
A1 façades are lightweight. Most A1 façade projects consist of panels with a thickness of only 7 mm. This results in a weight of approx 15 kg per m².
A1 façades have excellent fire ratings. The Classification of reaction to fire performance in accordance with EN 13501-1:2002: is B-s1,d0. After adding 35% of sand to the mass of A1 this even increases to A2-s1,d0
A1 gives you freedom of expression:
* You need to duplicate an existing structure but the original material is not suited or not available anymore.
* You need a concrete feel and look without the weight of concrete.
* You need the feel and look of wood but with high fire resistant properties.
* You need a huge brick wall but the support structure is not strong enough for real bricks.
* You need a natural stone feel and look but real natural stone is too expensive.
In all these cases A1 might be your answer.
