Specified GradeGo-Win PyroGuard IS:5509 Fire Retardant
Timber Species100% Hardwood Gurjan
Scale & Completion28,000 sq.ft2023
SECTION 01

The Material Challenge

National Building Code strict Class 1 Fire Retardance compliance and low smoke index in a high-density public aviation terminal, alongside warm organic biophilic timber aesthetics.

PyroGuard delivered certified 50+ minute flame penetration resistance without compromising on the intricate CNC perforations needed for acoustic performance.

Material Challenge Site Inspection
Site Verification • High environmental exposure assessment
SECTION 02

The Engineered Solution

Engineered custom CNC-perforated acoustic ceiling baffles and wall panels using Go-Win PyroGuard IS:5509 Fire Retardant Plywood treated with deep vacuum pressure fire retardants.

Unextended Phenolic Matrix

100% pure synthetic resin cross-linking guaranteeing irreversible waterproof bonding against steam and coastal monsoons.

±0.1mm Quad-Calibration

Simultaneous dual-sided diamond sanding that eliminates optical waviness under delicate veneers and high-gloss finishes.

Penta-Shield Autoclave

Vacuum pressure chemical infusion driving copper-boron preservative salts deep into timber fibers for 30-year borer protection.
