Sound Insulation
'INSUmelfoam' is a unique flexible / non fiberous open cell foam prossessing a combination of low weight a Class 'O' non flammable fire specification and good absorption properties. Produced from Melamine resins - a thermoset polymer INSUmelfoam exhibits superior fire temperature and chemicals resistance
Feature and Benefits
- Ultra low density (8 kKg/m3 - 11 Kg/m3) and lightweight Excellent absorption capability
- Non fibrous three dimesional filigree netwrok structure safe in any environment with high sound absorption capability
- CFC free
- Flexible with open cell structure Easy to cut and install
- Wide operating temeprature (-200°C to + 200°C) suitable for hot as well as cold insulation
- Low Flammability Passes even the toughest UL 94 V 0 test. Complies with the 'O' requirements of the building regulation when tested to BS476: Part 6: 1981 and Part 7: 1987
