The dimensional and strength properties of cellular glass insulation led to the use of the material in load bearing applications.
Cellular glass roof insulation.
As a natural outgrowth from cold storage applications cellular glass insulation began to be used in commercial roofing.
It offers an exceptional combination of properties such as incombustibility superior compressive strength guaranteed water and vapour tightness and long lasting thermal insulation performance.
Cellular glass insulation is composed of crushed glass combined with a cellulating agent.
Decomposition of the cellulating agent will cause the mixture to expand and fill the mold.
These components are mixed placed in a mold and then heated to a temperature of approximately 950 o f.
In fact cellular glass was the first insulation to be manufactured into a tapered roof insulation which enabled conversions of flat roofs to low slope roofs.
