There are so many incidents of fire reported till date in Singapore including hotels, restaurants, cafes and other buildings. So many causalities have also been reported till date. There is no doubt that Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) tried their best to save as many lives as they can but this is not the solution. We need to take all measures to prevent from fire. Using of fire retardant material is the best measure that can be taken in the beginning of architectural design. Fire retardant building material is a material used in buildings, that reduces flammability that delays the combustion and reduces the rapid oxidation produced by the fire. Fire retardant material resists from catching the fire and prevents from spreading it out. The buildings where no regulations are present, it is the duty of the architect to use the best quality material for fire retardant.

Almost 50 years have been passed to the invention of aluminium composite material and there are huge applications of it including fire retardant panels. Alucobond Aluminium Composite Material (ACM) proves to be a best quality fire retardant building material which protects buildings from the outdoors, keeping people safe and reduce the hazardous effects of smoke emission and droplets. Alucobond provides two types of fire retardant products i.e. ALUCOBOND Plus and ALUCOBOND A2. Both of them have distinct features that meets the standards of the ideal fire retardant material.
