Green Fiberglass Board for Building Envelopes
Green fiberglass board is a rigid insulation panel made from glass fibers and a green binder. This green fiberglass board has a density of 1.5 to 3.5 lb/ft³ for thermal resistance. The green color of this fiberglass board comes from recycled glass content.
A green fiberglass board with an R-value of 4.3 per inch provides effective insulation. The facings on green fiberglass board include foil, paper, or polypropylene. A green fiberglass board with a closed-cell structure resists moisture absorption.
The compressive strength of green fiberglass board is 20 to 30 psi for load-bearing applications. Green fiberglass board is used in commercial roofing and wall cavities. A green fiberglass board with a vapor retarder prevents condensation buildup.
The thermal conductivity of green fiberglass board is 0.23 BTU·in/hr·ft²·°F. Green fiberglass board with a 2-inch thickness provides R-8 insulation. A green fiberglass board with a foil facing reflects radiant heat.
Green fiberglass board is lightweight for easy handling and installation. The low VOC emissions of green fiberglass board improve indoor air quality. A green fiberglass board with a 50-year lifespan is durable for building envelopes. Green fiberglass board helps reduce energy consumption in residential and commercial buildings.
