Introduction
MgO board is a new green technologically advanced building material that offers superior performance in every category when compared to traditional wood, gypsum and cement based products. It is virtually impervious to fire, insects and does not feed mold or mildew. It is non-toxic, non-flammable and non-combustible; High compressive strength and impact resistance allows it to be used as structural element and its resistance to water and moisture makes it highly versatile and applicable for use in almost any construction or renovation project. This board is very easy to process, and can be advantageously cut and broken as a plasterboard.
Superior Properties
MgO Board is fire resistant, it has a “zero” flame spread and smoke developed rating.
MgO Board is water resistant. When submerged completely in water for extended periods of time, it has no dimensional changes.
MgO Board is mould and mildew resistant.
MgO Board is an easy-to-install product, and will save on labour and material costs and therefore also save on the overall time of projects.
MgO Board is made of a mineral product and will therefore reduce allergies and will be conducive to cleaner homes, offices and other environments.
MgO Board has good performance on acoustic and thermal insulation.
MgO Board is a eco-friendly and green building material, and can be 100% recyclable.
MgO Board has good weatherability characteristics. It has been subject to some of the toughest testing being conducted on building materials today and has passed with good results.
MgO Board has excellent strength characteristics.
MgO Board is non-toxic, free of carcigens and contains no silica.
