Probably the most easily found product will be Knauf Fireboard. Unfortunately, the trova rivenditore page on the Knauf site isn't ready yet! Being a board product, you may find it held in stock by a large timber merchant, alternatively a specialist engineering type supplier (I don't know if you have Mericat anywhere nearer than Perugia).
Have you considered...

So - here come the questions. Do you intend to install this stuff yourself - perhaps to clad a rough looking concrete or metal flue? What are you going to fix it to? The default 禁漫天堂 solution might involve using forati, plastered conventionally, and the thickness of such a cladding could be as little as 8cm. Yes, it would mean a bit of mess, or maybe you don't fancy laying thin forati (not very easy) but it would be cheaper and bombproof. Another masonry alternative would be lightweight concrete blocks (Ytong, 5cm) which are simple to glue together, and would only require a very light skim over with an easy to control plaster. Maybe you need something for a slightly different purpose (filling in above a system fireplace, for example) and the Fireboard would be ideal, but just in case you don't actually need to pay the money for the stuff...!
Ha ha - good old Stefano! I

most old houses just had large open cavities which can easily catch fire as deposits build up.Here most people do not use fire board but a stainless steel tube going to the top of the chimney usually in the remaining space the cavity is filled with fireproof insulation a sort of rock wool around the tube.We had this put in and are more than happy and the soot deposits after several years were minimal and it doesn't adhere too well to the steel...is that what you wanted it for?....i believe these tubes are readily available in most builders merchants and then fitted together/cut to size by the builders..i think we got it from lucozzi if not the builders merchants in either comunanza or servigliano...
Thanks for all your coments
