What is Magply?

Magply is A1 Non-combustible offering excellent fire resistance and is resistant to frost, moisture and impact and has been tested by the leading render manufacturers and at the British Board of Agreement (BBA).

What is Supalux?

The ultimate high-performance fire protection board from Promat. Supalux is a strong, lightweight non-combustible building board made of a calcium silicate composition and being gypsum-free provides for:

• Excellent dimensional stability: Supalux can be used even in damp or humid conditions - and has very low thermal shrinkage.
• Moisture resistance: Supalux can be safely installed in semi-exposed environments and before a building is watertight - contributing to a faster build.
• Wider temperature range: Supalux can be used in high-temperature environments - up to 80°C working temperatures - such as plant or boiler rooms and diesel generator flues.
• Slim construction: Supalux can be used to create space-saving solid wall partitions without the need for mineral wool.

No other board can deliver the same peace of mind with 30-plus years of proven performance across many building applications and offering flexibility with between 30 to 240 minutes of fire protection.

When fire or water protection is crucial, it's best to use a cement board. Created from a combination of cement and reinforcing fibres, cement board is most commonly used for floors and countertops, but can also be used for a range of other applications where structural reinforcement is required.
