Application

  • Warm roofing systems.
  • Accessible roofs including green roofs, terraces and balconies. 
  • Flat and pitched roofs.
  • Internal insulation including floors, walls and soffits.
  • Ground and perimeter insulation.
  • External walls below ground.
  • Heavy load roofs including vehicle access and plant.

Description

Features & Benefits:

  • Euroclass E.
  • Waterproof & moisture resistant due to its hermetically closed glass cell structure.
  • High compressive strength and dimensionally stable.
  • Highly resistant to all forms of infestation and vermin. 
  • Resistant to organic solvents and acids. 
  • Insulation manufactured primarily from recycled glass (≥60%). 
  • Long-term efficiency and thermal performance over time.


Compressive Strength:

FOAMGLAS® insulation has a high compressive strength, capable to take high loads without deformation or deflection due to its rigid cell structure. FOAMGLAS® passes EN 826 Annex A that defines the uniform load bearing capabilities of insulations which do not compress before the load capability is recorded. 

FOAMGLAS® is dimensionally stable, neither shrinks nor swells and does not slump over time. It has a low co-efficient of expansion within the same range to steel, wood and concrete.
