Technical Data and Certifications
CAF Panel Technical Data
- Base unit is compatible with conventional insulating materials and can be made to meet or exceed IRC code requirements for R values.
- Flame spread (ASTM E119): FSI = 75, SDI = 25, Class B material
- Thermal conductivity (ASTM C518): R 4.
- Moisture absorption (ASTM C739): 4.2% vs. allowable max of 15%
- Smoldering combustion (ASTM C739): no smoldering combustion; carbonization creates barrier to fuel/oxygen
- Impact resistance – several times more impact resistant than sheetrock
- Highly energy efficient – less than 5% of the embodied energy vs. GWB
