# SpecShaft and A1 Panels Achieve BS EN 1366-1, BS EN 1366- 8 and BS EN 12101-3 Fire Resistance Certification

At Specwall, we are committed to providing industry-leading fire safety solutions, and we are proud to announce that our **A1-rated panels and SpecShaft smoke shaft system** have successfully passed **BS EN 1366-1, BS EN 1366- 8 and BS EN 12101-3** fire resistance testing. This achievement reinforces our dedication to compliance, safety, and innovation in modern construction.

The testing, conducted at **Efectis in Istanbul**, demonstrated the exceptional performance of our products under rigorous fire conditions. With proven resistance to fire and smoke spread, **SpecShaft and our A1 panels meet the highest UK regulatory standards**, ensuring reliability and safety across a wide range of projects.

In addition to meeting strict fire safety regulations, **Specwall products are covered by professional indemnity insurance (PI insurance)**, giving our clients further confidence in their compliance and performance. To ensure the highest levels of installation quality, **all SpecShaft and A1 panel systems are fitted exclusively by our approved installer**, guaranteeing a seamless and fully certified solution.

As the demand for sustainable, cost-effective fire safety systems continues to grow, **SpecShaft and our A1 panels offer a superior alternative to traditional materials such as blockwork**. Designed for efficiency, durability, and ease of installation, our solutions reduce material waste and provide long-term benefits for architects, contractors, and developers.

For more information on how **SpecShaft and Specwall’s A1 panels** can improve fire safety and compliance in your next project, get in touch with our team today.
