- Manufactured from A1 classified galvanised steel.
- Use in a wide range of applications where durability, fire resistance, and aesthetics of the subfloor air brick are essential.
- Two air brick styles meet different design, airflow and vent placement requirements in buildings. For cladding, flanged options cover cut edges to maintain the external appearance.
