Product type TAPERED
Using the original Architect's CAD drawings, the FOAMGLAS® tapered insulation schemes are individually calculated and prepared for the specific building application such as roof or floor. This process ensures the correct drainage is achieved. The insulation is specifically factory machined and numbered to suit its relative position within the designed tapered insulation scheme.
Grade S3
With a thermal conductivity (lambda value) of 0.045 W/(m·K) and a max compressive strength of 900 kPa, FOAMGLAS® S3 is the insulation of choice for floors and roofs with a load-bearing capacity suitable for mid-sized vehicles and maintenance machines. Compressive strength requirements for any application should always be confirmed with a structural engineer to ensure the correct product specification.
