SUPALUX® consists of a calcium silicate matrix reinforced with selected fibres and special fillers. It does not contain asbestos or other inorganic fibres.


The board is cured in a high pressure steam autoclave, thus providing high dimensional and chemical stability with low alkalinity.

  

SUPALUX® calcium silicate board is off-white in colour with a sanded fair surface and lightly textured on reverse.
