Evonik has developed a new type of thermal insulation board, which uses CALOSTAT® high-performance materials as the core material. CALOSTAT® is a flame retardant, recyclable mineral material. With its thin, safe, and excellent long-term insulation performance, CALOSTAT® sandwich panels are widely used, especially suitable as heat insulation panels for ventilated curtain walls, double-layered masonry, or other closed narrow locations (such as skylights, downpipes, or rolls) Curtain and blind box rear side). CALOSTAT® sandwich panels save space needed for insulation materials and free up more living areas for sale or rent. When used in the renovation of historical brick buildings, etc., to retain the original structure of the building, CALOSTAT® sandwich panel is often the only insulation material that can be selected because it allows the builder to make full use of limited space to complete critical insulation Process. CALOSTAT® sandwich panel is pressed by pure mechanization, which is convenient for recycling.
The jury commented: "Evonik's new CALOSTAT® sandwich panel combines surface materials with different properties and a highly innovative CALOSTAT® high-performance insulation core material. Although this sheet has a thin appearance, it has thermal insulation properties Excellent and flame-retardant. In addition, the materials of each layer are combined by mechanization to facilitate subsequent separation and recycling. This excellent insulation material gives architects more choices while protecting the environment."
