| Property / Test | Standard | Result | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fire & Combustion Performance | |||
| Euroclass A1 Reaction to Fire | EN 13501-1:2018 (via EN 12467) | Class A1 Δm 38.5% · tf 0s · PCS −0.13 MJ/kg | The highest, non-combustible fire classification achievable in Europe. Tested to EN ISO 1182 & EN ISO 1716, MagPanel released virtually no heat and self-ignited at no point - earning a clean Class A1 with no smoke or flaming droplet sub-classes required. see report details → |
| Class A Surface Burning | ASTM E84-24 | Class A Flame Spread 0 · Smoke Developed 5 | The North American benchmark (Steiner Tunnel test) for interior wall and ceiling finishes. MagPanel recorded a Flame Spread Index of 0 and a Smoke Developed Index of 5 - far inside the Class A limits of the International Building Code. see report details → |
| Noncombustibility | ASTM E136 satisfies 2015 IBC Section 703.5.1 *By special order, lead times apply | Noncombustible 32% avg. weight loss (<50% limit) | Specimens held in a 750°C vertical tube furnace showed an average weight loss of just 32% with no sustained flaming - passing the ASTM E136 criteria and satisfying the IBC definition of a noncombustible material. *By special order, lead times apply. see report details → |
| Structural & Mechanical Strength | |||
| Bending Strength (Modulus of Rupture) | EN 12467 2012+A2:2018 | 10.2 MPa Class 2 · min. 9.1 MPa | Tested wet - the worst-case condition - MagPanel delivered an average modulus of rupture of 10.2 MPa, comfortably above the 9.1 MPa minimum and qualifying it as a Category B, Class 2 fibre-cement equivalent board. see report details → |
| Nail | ASTM D1037-12 (ICC-ES AC386) | 1,817 N Requirement ≥ 560 N | Measures how firmly the board grips a fastener under load - critical for wind uplift and racking. MagPanel held 1,817 N, more than three times the 560 N required by ICC-ES AC386 for fibre-reinforced MgO sheets. see report details → |
| Apparent Density | EN 12467 2012+A2:2018 | 926 kg/m³ Declared min. 920 kg/m³ | A dense, consistent core is what gives MgO board its strength, screw-hold and acoustic mass. MagPanel measured 926 kg/m³, exceeding its declared 920 kg/m³ minimum. see report details → |
| Dimensions & Tolerances | EN 12467 2012+A2:2018 | Level I Straightness & squareness ≤ 0.02% | Verifies that every board arrives flat, square and true to size. MagPanel met the tightest tolerance band (Level I) for length, width, thickness, straightness and squareness - ensuring fast, gap-free installation. see report details → |
| Moisture & Weather Durability | |||
| Water Impermeability | EN 12467 2012+A2:2018 | Pass Category B · no water drops | A 24-hour water-head test for Category B (external) boards. MagPanel showed only faint moisture traces on the underside with no droplet formation - passing the impermeability requirement. see report details → |
| Water Vapour Permeability | EN 12467 2012+A2:2018 | µ 12.4 Declared µ 12.8 | MagPanel is vapour-open, letting walls breathe and dry inward or outward. Its measured resistance factor of µ 12.4 sits below the declared 12.8 - confirming the breathable performance claimed on the datasheet. see report details → |
| Moisture Movement | EN 12467 2012+A2:2018 | 0.08% 30% → 90% RH, both axes | Dimensional change cycled from 30% to 90% relative humidity. MagPanel moved just 0.08% in both directions - exceptional stability that resists cracking at joints and fasteners. see report details → |
| Freeze | EN 12467 2012+A2:2018 | RL 0.79 25 cycles · min. 0.75 | After 25 aggressive freeze-thaw cycles, MagPanel retained a strength ratio of RL 0.79 against the 0.75 minimum - proving it survives harsh, cold-climate exterior exposure without delaminating. see report details → |
| Heat | EN 12467 2012+A2:2018 | Pass 25 cycles · no defects | Simulates years of sun-then-rain thermal shock on a facade. After 25 heat-rain cycles MagPanel showed no cracks, delamination, warping or bowing - a clean pass for external cladding use. see report details → |
| Health, Air Quality & Environmental Safety | |||
| Formaldehyde Emissions | ASTM D6007-14 | < 0.005 ppm Below limit of quantification | Small-chamber emissions testing found standardized formaldehyde in air below 0.005 ppm - under the instrument’s limit of quantification and well within the strictest indoor-air standards. MagPanel is a No-Added-Formaldehyde board. see report details → |
| Asbestos Screening | NIOSH 9002:1994 | Negative All 6 fibre types · asbestos-free | Qualitative microscopy screened for all six regulated asbestos fibre types. MagPanel returned a negative result across the board - confirming it is 100% asbestos-free. see report details → |
| REACH SVHC Compliance | REACH(EC) No 1907/2006 | Compliant 240+ SVHCs · all not detected | Screened against the full EU Candidate List of 240+ Substances of Very High Concern. Every substance came back “not detected” below the 0.010% reporting limit - MagPanel meets REACH Article 33 requirements. see report details → |
