Application
Compact roof

The metal roof protects the building structure, and the valuable assets within. FOAMGLAS® insulation was chosen by Architects Future Systems as the correct system to support the bright yellow double-curved aluminum roof, a design in the style of a sports car hood from a bygone era.

FOAMGLAS® insulation is non‑combustible and impermeable to water and water vapour. The aluminum roof is secured to the upper surface of the insulation, there are no fixings and thermal brides through to the building structure. Thermal performance and climate control is optimized. Overall thickness of the roof system is minimized, saving weight and energy.

FOAMGLAS® insulation demonstrates stable material properties over time, based on testing and long‑term application experience, supporting long service life.
