FOAMGLAS® Board S3 is a high-quality thermal insulation to be used throughout the entire internal and external building envelope when high compressive strength is required.
Application
- Floors and roofs with a load-bearing capacity.
- Internal insulation.
- Floor insulation in industrial environments.
- Ground and perimeter insulation.
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.
