The manufacturing process of the astonishing insulation material—— Foam Glass

You may have seen this porous, lightweight material that resembles black foam—it is foam glass.

It is an insulating material made primarily from glass, which is foamed and molded at high temperatures. 

It is an insulating material made primarily from glass, which is foamed and molded at high temperatures. Just like its original form—glass, foam glass boasts excellent fire resistance, waterproofing, and chemical corrosion resistance. However, words alone might not fully convey how it is produced. Let's step into a foam glass factory to take a closer look!

Myreal foam glass insulation is a non-combustible material, meeting the Class A1 fire rating according to EN 13501-1:2007. As an inorganic material, it neither burns nor supports combustion. It provides additional fire protection by effectively blocking the penetration of flammable liquids and gases. Under flame exposure, the material does not burn or release toxic gases, making it an ideal choice for both fire safety and thermal insulation in construction.
