datadiffusion Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Any other material that is fire resistant - there are lots of suitable plastics, but much harder to mould and cost ++. So far easier for CU manufacturers to slightly modify (if at all) an existing metal design, and no actual need to test if metal burns.

james.wilson Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 I'm hoping for fire resistant plastic as it should allow for development of fixings for escape routes Quote securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

Simlec Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 As far as I'm aware (have been told from people above) plastic is out and will not be making an appearance. I also asked about the use of plastic plugs with the escape route fixings and this is fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datadiffusion Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) I'm hoping for fire resistant plastic as it should allow for development of fixings for escape routes It's widely available, but either far too brittle (phenolic) or far too soft / difficult to mould to small details (the sort they make car fuel tanks from) for this sort of thing, that's the problem as I understand it.
