‘FOAMGLAS® is completely impervious to water-vapour and is therefore ideal for insulation of ceilings to eliminate condensation within the structure and on the surface. The insulation value of FOAMGLAS® remains constant for the lifetime of the building. Relatively high humidity can be experienced in areas such as bathrooms and kitchens but even in these conditions, FOAMGLAS® will not slump or deform and any internal finish will therefore not be affected by it. When used with separate internal finish boards or panels, FOAMGLAS® Wallboard/slab T4 WDS insulation applied to ceilings requires only a simple batten lattice for the fixing of the finish panels. This almost eliminates cold bridging. FOAMGLAS® is totally non-combustible and cannot contribute to a fire nor give off toxic fumes or smoke; it is also totally free from HCFC, HFA and pentane.'
