🔥 Fire protection class A for photovoltaic modules – not yet standard, but increasingly relevant!
When it comes to photovoltaics, many people think of performance, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness – but safety is also a crucial issue.
Fire protection class A stands for the highest level of safety:
�➡️ non-combustible
➡️ no flame spread
➡️ no dripping or smoldering
Therefore, most PV modules comply with fire protection class B – �they are flame-resistant but not completely non-flammable.
Fire protection class A is not yet standard—here's why:�
🔹 Materials for class A (e.g., glass-glass modules) are more expensive�
🔹 Modules with fire protection class B are usually sufficient for private roofs.
🔹 Class A modules are primarily required for sensitive or industrial buildings.
💡 But the trend is clearly moving towards fire protection class A:�
More and more project developers, planners, and operators are opting for higher safety classes – to minimize risks, meet insurance requirements, and make secure long-term investments.
👉 Conclusion: Fire protection class A is not currently a must – but it is a decisive advantage for sustainable and future-proof PV projects.
�🔜 And best of all: a photovoltaic module with fire protection class A is already part of our portfolio – with impressive performance values and safety advantages.
Details will follow in the next article.
