FOAMGLAS® Insulation Solutions by Application
Plazas/Decks

Plaza and deck applications subject insulation to the forces, loads and abuse of constant pedestrian and vehicular activity-factors that can compress and crush other insulation materials.
FOAMGLAS
® Insulation's high compressive strength allows wide latitude in the selection of a working stress level to achieve an adequate safety factor. Its high strength, rigidity and resistance to deformation under load are unaffected by constant heat, cold, high humidity, rain or snow. Also, because FOAMGLAS
® Insulation is 100% inert glass, it is chemically resistant and will not decompose where cars or other equipment may drip fuel, oil or antifreeze.
And, because only FOAMGLAS
® cellular glass insulation is completely closed-celled, it is impermeable to moisture. It prevents potential moisture vapor condensation within the insulation envelope. What's more, FOAMGLAS
® Insulation eliminates the danger of root invasion because water cannot accumulate in the insulation and results in a less costly installation because a separate water distribution system can be reduced in scope or even eliminated.
