A Milestone That Redefines Indian ACP Manufacturing
The ACP cladding market is one of the most dynamic segments in global construction. With stringent fire-safety regulations shaping architectural choices, fire-resistant or fire-retardant ACP sheets have become a non-negotiable requirement. Until now, no Indian ACP brand has been able to comply with European standards. Our FR Class-A2 and FR Class-B grades are now officially recognized for use in low- to high-rise buildings across Europe. This achievement not only opens doors to new markets—it also demonstrates that Indian ACP innovation can meet the most demanding international standards.
Why ETA Certification Matters for Our Industry
The European Technical Assessment (ETA) is more than just a document—it is a passport to trust, credibility, and international acceptance.
- It validates fire safety at the highest level – Our FR-A2 grade represents one of the toughest European classifications. In a market where fire-resistant or fire-retardant ACP can be the difference between safety and disaster, this recognition is critical.
- It enables CE marking – With ETA, our ACP panels can now carry the CE mark, ensuring seamless application across the European Union.
- It builds architect and consultant confidence – European projects require materials that comply with CPR (Construction Products Regulation). We can now proudly provide a fire-safe ACP cladding solution that consultants can specify without hesitation.
- It raises India’s credibility – This milestone proves that Indian ACP manufacturing can deliver products that meet the world’s highest safety and performance standards.
Our Commitment to Fire Safety: #BeatTheFire
Our journey to ETA is built on our unwavering commitment to fire safety. Through our #BeatTheFire campaign, we have worked tirelessly to raise awareness about the risks of unsafe ACP sheets and the importance of certified, fire-retardant cladding materials.
The ETA certification now transforms that advocacy into proof. It shows that we are not just talking about safety—we are leading with solutions that protect lives and property. By aligning innovation with the #BeatTheFire mission, we reinforce our role as a trusted name in fire-safe architecture.
