30-Minute Fire Frame
» » ISO CHEMIE’S ISO-TOP WINFRAMER
thermal insulating and load bearing bracket
system for the rapid installation of windows has
been fire rated to E30.
The award confirms ISO-TOP
WINFRAMER can protect the entire window
area from fire for a minimum of 30 minutes,
guaranteeing the retention of structural
integrity, as well as supporting at least
200kg/m and providing an air-tight cavity
support.
Thirty minutes is considered enough time
for people to safely escape a property in the
event of a fire and help to delay the spread to
adjoining rooms and buildings, keeping any
damage to a minimum.
WINFRAMER, which already has
Passivhaus certified status, is a structurally
solid, pre-fabricated installation frame,
manufactured to accommodate cavities up to
250mm. This allows windows to be supported
independently from the face of the wall
regardless of any external cladding being in
place.
Product can be quickly cut to length on
site and secured in position using a single
component adhesive and, if necessary,
fixing screws. This allows installers to fit
windows into the insulation area between
the inner and outer walls easily, avoiding
the need to use metal brackets that cause
non-repeating thermal bridging and give
extensive problems when the windows need
replacing.
The composite brackets can bear heavy
windows loads, including Bi-fold doors,
to provide a reliable, strong and high-
performance support frame. Installation is
quick with windows attached directly and
secured mechanically using either standard
fixing screws or fixing lugs in the usual
manner.
A hinged insulation core combines with
the composite wood structural bracket
to become an integral part of the overall
wall structure, providing compliance with
window energy saving regulations (EnEV)
and the RAL quality assurance association.
ISO-TOP WINFRAMER can be used
with a range of ISO-CHEMIE foam tape
sealant systems to provide effective and high-
performance window sealing. These include
ISO-BLOCO One, ISO-BLOCO One
Control, ISO-BLOCO 300 and 600, the ISO-
CONNECT Vario range of self-adhesive foils
and fleeces, and ISO-TOP Flex Adhesive WF
for bonding and sealing to masonry and joint/
corner sealing.
