Aestuver | James Hardie Europe GmbH

Aestuver® is the passive fire protection brand of James Hardie Europe GmbH. The company manufactures cement-bonded, glass-fibre reinforced lightweight concrete boards and system components that protect load-bearing structures in tunnels, underground transport systems, infrastructure and industrial facilities. All boards are free of combustible components and achieve the highest classification (Type X) for weather, frost and water resistance, which allows them to be used in permanently damp, frost-exposed and washdown environments as well as for retrofitting in operating tunnels.

Products are supplied together with engineering support, external certification (ETA, AbP, abZ, aBG) and technical service on site.
