Corrosion-ResistantAll-glass FOAMGLAS insulation is unaffected by common chemicals and by most corrosive plantatmospheres. It does not promote metal corrosion and its moisture resistance will help keep waterfrom reaching equipment and piping.

Dimensionally StableFOAMGLAS insulation is unaffected by temperature differentials and humidity. It will not swell, warp,shrink or otherwise distort. The insulation systems integrity remains intact.

High Compressive StrengthFOAMGLAS insulation can withstand loads which crush most other insulating materials. In a properlydesigned piping system, FOAMGLAS insulation eliminates the need for special treatment at pipe cradles.Italsoprovidesarmbaseforroofmembranes,jacketingorvaporretarders,prolongingtheirlife.
