FOAMGLAS® cellular glass insulation is a lightweight, rigid, and durable material composed of completely sealed glass cells. It’s non-combustible, provides superior compressive strength, moisture resistance, dimensional stability, and offers long lasting thermal performance. A wide range of shapes and sizes are available for building, equipment and industrial specifications.
Owens Corning® FOAMGLAS® cellular glass insulation portfolio is specifically designed for commercial building and roofing applications. It provides performance that is unachievable with any other building insulation. Owens Corning® FOAMGLAS® cellular glass insulation is a lightweight, rigid, and durable material composed of completely sealed glass cells. It’s non-combustible, provides superior compressive strength, moisture resistance, dimensional stability, and offers long lasting thermal performance.
Dimensionally Stable
- Better matches substrate expansion and contraction than other insulations
- Will not compress or deform leading to tears or punctures
- Remains flat for the life of the roof
Water Tight
- 100% closed-cell material
- Will not absorb water
- No warping or swelling
- Membrane leaks remain local and are easy to repair
Vapor Impermeable
- Prevents the passage of water vapor and other gases
- Condensation control with no additional vapor barrier
- Insulation will not accumulate moisture over time
Non-Combustible
- Made from glass
- Zero flame spread and smoke developed
High Compressive Strength
- Designed to withstand loads which crush most other insulating materials
- Can eliminate thermal bridges where other conductive load-bearing material was once required
- Allows for thinner slabs in parking and plaza decks and green roofs
Rot and Insect Resistant
- Inorganic
- Not a source of food for rodents, insects, or micro-organisms
