Fireshell® F1E: An exterior, water‑borne, flexible intumescent coating designed to protect timber surfaces in bushfire zones (compliant with AS 3959:2018 for BAL 12.5, 19 & 29).
Fireshell® F1E – EXFIRE Fire Resistant Paint
- Appropriate for combustible substrates where you want to reduce ignition risk.
- Good to include if your shielding assembly involves timber elements or combustible backings.
Metalflex PCM Matt (Wallmaster Paints): A heat‑reflective metal‑roof coating in Australia, promoting high IR reflectivity (though geared toward solar heat/near‑IR).
Energy Star Metalflex PCM Matt
- Useful for metal surfaces facing heat loads; the reflectivity spec extends well into the mid/long‑wave IR band relevant to bushfire radiation.
SilverSark® xR HD Reflective Barrier (Ametalin): A flexible multi‑layer reflective insulation system with aluminium foil surfaces and “high IR reflection ink technology”; described as suitable for all BALs in bushfire‑prone areas.
- Good option for behind cladding or within cavity assemblies as a radiant barrier.
Heat‑Reflective Colour‑Coated Aluminium Sheet (Signi Aluminium): Sheets coated with ultra‑fine IR‑reflective powder pigments, aimed at enhancing IR reflectance (primarily near‑IR/solar but relevant) for aluminium sheet façades.

- Useful for non‑combustible cladding scenarios in bushfire zones (especially when aluminium is already selected for bal ratings).
Fire Safe Cladding PowderShield™ (Fire Safe Cladding): Australian‑made aluminium non‑combustible cladding, with a fire‑resistant finish designed for bushfire compliance (BAL zones).
- Good for external surfaces where you want overall cladding performance; while not explicitly a “radiation shield”, it addresses external fire attack including radiant heat and embers.
