ARKETA-FR (Base Material) Class A Fire Rated Acoustic PET Felt Panel
ARKETA is a high-performance sound absorber with a layered construction allowing for a high degree of variation in thickness, density, and acoustical performance. Available in 5 standard neutral colors, ARKETA can be combined with any ARKETA acoustic felt layers (on one or two sides) to make up a high performance SATIS acoustical sheet.
For industrial settings (such as ecommerce distribution warehouses) ARKETA can be ordered ‘naked’ (without an SATIS surface) and mounted directly on walls and ceilings without any spacing and achieves absorption levels of up to 0.42 NRC (subject to thickness/density ordered). ARKETA has a natural ‘skin’ on the surface to allow for easy cleanability. ARKETA is made up of 100% PET fiber, of which at least 60% comes from recycled plastic bottles, making it a sustainable acoustic panel that provides amazing value, and acoustical performance.
ASTM E84 Fire Test Standard
FSI (Flame Spread Index):
The Flame Spread Index (FSI) measures
the speed at which flames spread across a material during a fire. In ASTm E84 testing, a lower FSI value indicates better resistance to flame spread. materials with an FSI value between 0 and 25 are generally considered fire-resistant or exhibit low flame spread. For example, a material with an FSI of 5 would have very low flame spread.
SDI (Smoke Developed Index):
The Smoke Developed Index (SDI) refers to the amount of smoke produced during a fire. Values close to 0 indicate that the material produces very little smoke when burning. A material with an SDI of 0 produces the least smoke.
Based on these values, a material with an FSI of 5 and an SDI of 0, such as acoustic felt, would be classified as highly fire-resistant and producing minimal smoke during combustion.
Conclusion:
The product whose test results are given above meets Class A criteria according to ASTm E84 Standard.
The test results relate to the behaviour of the test specimen of a product under the conditions of the test; they are not intended to be the sole criterion for assessing the potential fire hazard of the product of use. The results of tests are concerned only with the subject of testing.
