In recent years, Australia has experienced some of the most extreme summer conditions on record – – and a rise in the risk of bushfire.
Building standards require every new home built in bushfire-prone areas to use bushfire rated building materials for construction.
To help meet these requirements, Bradnam’s have developed FlameShield™, a range of bushfire rated window and door products.
FlameShield™ is fully compliant with all Australian Bushfire Attack Level (BAL) Standards.
