Honeycomb is a polymer/compound formed into continuous uniform hexagonal cells. This material can resist high pressure.It is the best choice with its Light weight, high strength, smooth surface, non-toxic environmental protection.It will be a very good choice if you need it flat and with light weight.

 

Perlite

Perlite is a lightweight granular material that's white in colour. It looks and feels like little bits of polystyrene but is actually made from expanded volcanic glass, heated to 1000°C until it 'pops' (like popcorn) to many times its original size. It's lightweight, sterile, and easy to handle, and is long-lasting.when it is used in doors, it will help to be fire-resistant and also keep hot energy inside the room.

Not Only for Steel fire door, Perlite is also the main material we use for producing UL fire rated wood Door.

 

Aluminum Silicate Wool

It will be the best one in these 3 types, it is Low thermal conductivity and good insulation performance. When used under the same conditions, aluminum silicate products have a thermal conductivity lower than other insulation materials by more than 30%. Lightweight and stable, with characteristics such as softness, lightness, and elasticity.If you have enough budget and require higher standard, it will be a good choice for fire doors you need.
