With the needed thermal break and DPC properties of a cavity closer, REDSHIELD® is a standard profile cavity barrier that conforms to the requirements of Building Regulations Part B for fire integrity and insulation, without the need for extra lining materials. The outer casing is made of PVCu and contains a core of compressed mineral fibre wool.
REDSHIELD® can be used in both new build and refurbishment projects, and its unique design allows it to be adapted to different cavity sizes. As a result, it can provide a continuous seal across a range of cavity widths, including those that ‘stray’ in size.
