«One Layer. Multiple Benefits.»
Foamit foam glass combines insulation, drainage, and load-bearing capacity in one material, creating efficient and durable floor constructions for residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.
A Smarter Alternative for Ground Floor Construction
Ground-supported floors require effective insulation, moisture protection, and long-term stability to ensure building performance and occupant comfort.
Foamit foam glass can replace multiple traditional construction layers by combining thermal insulation, capillary break, drainage, and load distribution in a single material. This simplifies construction while reducing the need for additional materials.
Benefits of Foamit Foam Glass in Floor Constructions
Foamit foam glass provides a unique combination of structural and thermal performance.
The material creates a stable base for floor slabs while helping to improve energy efficiency and moisture management within the building structure.
Key benefits include:
- Durable, non-combustible solution
- Thermal insulation and energy efficiency
- Drainage and capillary break in one layer
- Stable load distribution beneath floor slabs
- Reduced material use
- Simplified construction process
- Not attractive to pests
Efficient, Durable and Sustainable Floor Constructions
By combining thermal insulation, drainage, capillary break, and load distribution in one material, Foamit foam glass can reduce the number of layers required in a floor construction.
In many applications, foam glass aggregates can replace traditional combinations of granular fill, drainage layers, and insulation boards. This can simplify logistics, reduce installation time, and contribute to lower embodied carbon in the overall construction.
As an inorganic mineral material, Foamit foam glass does not provide a food source or nesting material for pests, while maintaining its insulating and drainage properties throughout the service life of the building. The result is a durable floor construction with reliable long-term performance and low maintenance requirements.
