FOAMGLAS®

Overview

FOAMGLAS® is a high-quality thermal insulation to be used throughout the entire internal and external building envelope.


FOAMGLAS® insulation is a light-weight, rigid and durable material, composed of millions of completely sealed glass cells.

It offers an exceptional combination of properties such as incombustibility, superior compressive strength, guaranteed water- and vapour tightness and long lasting thermal insulation performance.

FOAMGLAS® can be relied upon for any build up requirement.
