SONOFIRE — Fireproof Composite Adhesive for Critical Applications
SONOFIRE Overview – High-Safety Adhesive for Fire-Rated Systems
SONOFIRE is a high-performance fireproof adhesive engineered for bonding thermal and acoustic insulation materials in areas exposed to extreme temperatures or requiring certified fire resistance. Used primarily in HVAC systems, smoke extraction ducts, and structural fire barriers, it provides both mechanical bonding and flame-retardant protection in a single application. This ready-to-use composite is formulated for professional construction, industrial installations, and technical environments. It ensures durable adhesion across multiple substrates, including metal, concrete, and mineral boards. Whether applied manually or through a pump system, SONOFIRE helps optimize installation efficiency while maintaining stringent safety standards.
SONOFIRE Key Benefits – Why Choose This Adhesive?
- Certified Fire Resistance: Withstands temperatures up to 1200°C, certified for 2-hour structural fire protection according to European standards.
- Strong Mechanical Bond: Offers a reliable grip for insulation layers such as SONO-AL, even in vertical or overhead applications.
- Moisture and Shrinkage Resistant: Maintains long-term sealing performance without cracking or shrinking, even under thermal stress.
- Ready to Use: Supplied pre-mixed in 25 kg buckets — no on-site blending required. Compatible with extrusion nozzles and pump systems.
- Low VOC Emissions: Meets EU requirements for indoor air quality — safe for residential, commercial, and institutional spaces.
- Multi-Substrate Compatibility: Adheres effectively to aluminum foil, galvanized steel, gypsum boards, mineral wool, and concrete.
SONOFIRE Application Areas – Where to Use It
The SONOFIRE adhesive is designed for use in the most demanding environments where both fire safety and mechanical bonding are critical. It is ideal for:
- Smoke and ventilation ducts requiring certified fire insulation
- Fire-separation joints in ceilings, technical shafts, and HVAC zones
- HVAC systems in commercial, industrial, or public buildings
- Bonding SONO-AL laminated fiberglass mats
- Thermal insulation joints in critical safety corridors and escape routes
- Technical rooms in hospitals, schools, and data centers
SONOFIRE is particularly effective when paired with SONO-AL fiberglass mats, as it enhances the insulation’s structural integrity while creating a fire-rated seal.

SONOFIRE Installation Guidelines – Best Practices
Proper installation of SONOFIRE ensures optimal fire and structural performance:
1.
Surface preparation: Clean all surfaces of dust, oil, or moisture. Adhesion is strongest on dry, rough substrates such as concrete, plaster, or galvanized steel.
2.
Application: Spread SONOFIRE with a trowel, spatula, or compatible pump/extrusion gun. Apply an even layer over the target bonding area.
3.
Placement: Firmly press insulation mats or boards into the adhesive while still fresh. Avoid delays to prevent skinning.
4.
Finishing: Smooth edges to ensure airtight sealing and uniform coverage. Allow full curing before exposing to mechanical stress or fire testing.
5.
Curing time: Initial adhesion is strong within 30–60 minutes; full mechanical strength and fireproof sealing typically develop after 24–48 hours.
