  • Description

    The 6mm Ramco Calcium Silicate Board A1 Non-Combustible 2440 x 1220mm (8′ x 4′) is part of Ramco’s flagship Hilux range, supplied in the UK by Ramco Industries UK. Unlike standard fibre cement, Hilux is made from siliceous and calcareous materials reinforced with cellulose fibres, then cured under high-pressure steam. The result is a board that stays dimensionally stable even when soaked, heated or exposed to humidity.

    At 6mm, this is the slimmest sheet in the Hilux range. A full 8′ x 4′ panel weighs around 18.5kg. The smooth off-white face is ready for paint, wallpaper, laminate or digital print.

    Fire performance

    This is what the 6mm Hilux board is built for. It carries a Euroclass A1 rating to EN 13501-1, the top reaction-to-fire classification, meaning it adds nothing to a fire. It is also non-combustible to BS 476 Part 4, Class 1 surface spread of flame (Part 7), Class ‘P’ Not Easily Ignitable (Part 5), with a Flame Spread Index of 0 and Smoke Developed Index of 5 under ASTM E84. Tested partition systems reach up to 4 hours fire resistance. That makes it suitable for refurbishment projects, escape corridors, riser shafts and other applications where non-combustible wall and ceiling materials are required.

    Water and durability

    Hilux doesn’t swell, rot or delaminate when it gets wet. Length change in saturated conditions stays under 0.1%. It passes the complete BS EN 12467 durability suite (warm water, freeze-thaw, soak-dry, heat-rain and water impermeability), helping reduce the risk of warping in damp soffit conditions and supporting dimensional stability in humid plant rooms, and it doesn’t feed mould or fungus.

    Acoustic insulation runs 30-32 dB for a single board and up to 56 dB in tested partition systems. The board emits no detectable VOCs under ISO 16000-6, is asbestos-free (verified by X-ray diffraction), and comes with a 15-year manufacturer’s warranty against defects.

    Applications

    • Suspended and fixed ceiling linings.
    • Soffit boarding under eaves and overhangs.
    • Curved feature walls and bulkheads (cold-bent to 600mm minimum radius, easier when wet).
    • Lightweight wall linings on timber or steel framing behind paint or wallpaper.
    • Second-layer lining over existing walls and ceilings for fire upgrades.
    • Non-combustible overlay in plant rooms, garages and service voids.
    • Damp-prone areas: bathrooms, kitchens and utility rooms behind paint or wallpaper.

    1. Q Why is this board lighter than a fibre cement board of the same thickness?
      A

      The autoclave curing creates a less dense internal structure, so a sheet comes in around 18.5kg rather than the heavier fibre cement equivalent. That makes it easier to handle overhead on ceiling and soffit work, which is one of its main uses.

    2. Q How tight a curve can I actually bend it to? 
      A

      Down to a 600mm radius cold, and it bends more willingly when damp. Take it slowly and fix as you go around the curve rather than trying to force the whole sheet at once, and back it with framing at close centres to hold the shape.

    3. Q Will fixings hold in it for light fittings? 
      A

      For genuinely light items it holds a screw, but at 6mm it's thin, so anything with real weight should be fixed back to the framing or a noggin behind the board rather than relying on the board alone.

    4. Q What's the best way to cut it cleanly?
      A

      Score and snap works for straight cuts, and a fibre cement blade or fine-tooth saw handles the rest. Cut with dust extraction or a mask on, and cut from the face side to keep the visible edge clean.
