The choice to use Garnica Fireshield plywood, with material supplied by Lathams, a trusted partner in the country, reinforces Lisset Homes' commitment to customisation, innovation and durability.
Fireshield is designed to offer excellent fire resistance as well as remarkable robustness. It is a fire-retardant construction plywood modified by an innovative treatment that gives 100% of the board exceptional fire resistance, even after sanding or machining. Its uniform surface ensures a superior aesthetic finish, making it the ideal choice for both interior and exterior applications in Lisset Homes homes. This material is noted for its dimensional stability and resistance to delamination, both of which are key characteristics for its constructions.
Lisset Homes uses Fireshield on all interior walls and ceilings in its homes, providing an elegant finish and an additional layer of fire safety. Its Euroclass B-s1-d0 and ASTM E-84 Class A certifications, the highest in wood, attest to its excellent fire resistance results as it significantly reduces the rate of charring, smoke generation and flame spread, with no flaming particles falling. In addition, it is applied to exterior facades, complemented by a system of breathable membranes and timber cladding. This approach ensures buildings that are not only durable but also aesthetically pleasing, adapted to UK climatic conditions.
Holiday and residential homes built with Fireshield are ideal for projects that require bespoke design and a high level of customisation. From lodges in rural settings to homes in coastal areas, Lisset Homes has been able to create unique spaces that meet the specific needs of its clients.

The quality and finish of the Fireshield is exceptional, allowing us to build stronger and more durable homes.
