SAF’s C-4000 series rainscreen system deemed NFPA 285-compliant

SAF, an Atlanta-based metals distributor, fabricator, and finisher, recently completed the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 285 testing and passed for its C-4000 series, a drained and back-ventilated aluminum composite material rainscreen panel system.

Compliance with the standard gives architects, designers, and SAF customers more design freedom when specifying C-4000 series for multistory buildings, allowing them to understand its potential for flame spread and providing assurance that its flammability characteristics meet the accepted NFPA 285 standards.
