Fire doors and gates have the task of delaying the spread of fire for a certain period of time in the event of a fire, thereby sealing off escape and rescue routes in the building from the flames. They help to save human lives and important goods from the spread of fire. With its Batiboard product range, Sitek Insulation has been supplying homogeneous, pressure-resistant as well as fire-resistant insulation boards for use as core insulation in fire doors for over 30 years. Batiboard insulation boards support the stability of fire doors through self-supporting properties.  They are easy to handle, cut to size and compatible with bonding and pressing methods. They allow for lighter and stronger door constructions, proven by high material integrity through the door slam test as well as high heat resistance during the fire test.
