PROBOND UltraFR® is one of the only Fire Resistant Signage Grade panels in the world and is designed for where a fire resistant panel with a Group1 BCA Classification is required for signage applications.

The mineral core is designed to resist burning under extreme fire conditions and the external aluminium has a PPG FEVE Coating for extended outdoor durability designed to withstand the harsh Australian UV conditions. It is the highest standard of panel for all signage applications.

PROBOND UltraFR® has a total thickness of 3mm and an aluminium skin thickness of 0.3mm. It is suitable for folding, grooving and CNC routing and can be guillotine cut or sawn using standard aluminium blades.

PROBOND UltraFR® is available in a wide range of colours and surface finishes* and is extremely flat and rigid. It is recommended for exterior and interior flat face signage, shop fitouts and all display applications particularly where fire resistant properties are required.
