Do timber homes offer protection and safety when it comes to fires?
Naturally they do. The prejudice that construction in wood is especially susceptible to fire is just that – an unfounded prejudice that has been categorically rebutted by an extensive series of recent tests. The CSI testing centre, which is an independent organisation that follows European guidelines, certified Rubner Haus building materials as having the best static qualities, even in the case of fire. It has been proven using strictly regulated testing procedures that the wood Rubner uses for building is characterised by stability and excellent resistance to high temperatures. The Residenz and Blockhaus systems have both thoroughly passed internationally standardised fire safety tests.
