Why Tirana Boulevard’s façade is the only viable solution for fire safety
The structure of the outer panel and mineral wool
The external façade panel used at Tirana Boulevard is made of aluminium composite. It is classified as a high level of fire resistance.
The mineral wool boards are specially tailored for the thermal insulation of the exterior façade.
Most importantly, both façade’s main components are distinguished by their long fire-resistance performance.
In large-scale fire tests carried out on these materials, the mineral-rich core of an A2 composite panel remained unaffected for at least 25 minutes.
As a result, flames do not spread rapidly across the entire façade, which creates a critical advantage for immediate intervention, whether through on-site fire-fighting measures or by professional teams engaged in fully containing and extinguishing the fire.
Tirana Boulevard is built with:
- A ventilated façade with A2 classification and non-combustible materials.
- Materials that are non-toxic and have a negligible impact on the external environment.
- A dense hydraulic and hydrant network, distributed extensively across every surface and edge of the building.
- A dense sprinkler network with intelligent fire suppression control.
- A pressurisation system designed for the efficient circulation of air through corridors, intermediate floors, and evacuation passageways.
Key safety features of Tirana Boulevard:
- Dedicated emergency staircases designed for safe evacuation in the event of fire.
- Maximum safety standards and intelligent anti-panic technology.
- An evacuation plan calculated with precision in terms of timing, route, and the protection of every resident’s life in emergency situations.
Concrete examples of where this type of structure has been used in Europe:
Tirana Boulevard reflects a highly contemporary approach, one that follows the most successful and advanced international examples.
Brussels – the “Quatuor” office complex
This office complex features an advanced aluminium façade system, tested for high resistance to both wind and water.
