Updated ICID G50 ventilated square, round and support firestop plates

(Washington, Tyne and Wear, 21. December 2021) ICID Plus has been tested and approved to meet the latest BS EN1856-1 requirements when passing through either combustible or non combustible floors with a distance to combustible material of 50mm within both the floor cavity and within a shaft. The firestop plates have also been tested and approved to BS476 Part 20.

Product information

All the tests have been carried out using the latest design of ventilated firestop plate, in both round and square versions and the new ventilated support plate. The updated G50 Ventilated Square and Round Firestop plates have been engineered to provide an increased air flow around the flue, which keeps the area around the chimney inside the enclosure cooler during operation.

There is no requirement to line the timbers to achieve the 50mm distance to combustibles.
