Supplier's note

  1. Technical Breakthroughs:

    • The Pro Model’s 0.03 W/m·K thermal conductivity (40% lower than industry benchmarks) enables unmatched energy savings in high-temperature environments.
    • The Advanced Model’s 4.0 MPa compressive strength allows use in load-bearing applications, expanding beyond traditional insulation roles.
    • All versions meet Class A fire resistance, with the Pro Model offering 4-hour endurance—critical for industrial safety compliance.
  2. Optimal Version Selection:

    • Base Model: Ideal for basic insulation in residential walls or agricultural greenhouses where cost efficiency is prioritized.
    • Advanced Model: Suited for commercial construction requiring moderate load-bearing capacity, such as partition walls or roof decks.
    • Pro Model: Tailored for high-risk industrial settings (e.g., chemical plants) needing extreme thermal and fire protection. With its 6.0 MPa strength, it also excels in heavy-duty lightweight concrete mixes.

Example: With the Pro Model’s 0.03 W/m·K thermal conductivity, you can reduce HVAC energy consumption by 30% in data centers. Its 4-hour fire resistance ensures compliance with NFPA standards during equipment failures.
