FIRE SAFETY
Zero flame spread - with no chemical additives.
Because it is made from glass, Monoglass® is naturally a non-combustible material. Monoglass does not require the addition of chemicals to control flammability, as all cellulose based insulations do. Furthermore, Monoglass will never need to have such chemicals re-applied, reducing long term costs, and ensuring long term product safety.
Monoglass is rated as a Class 1 Building Material and meets the requirements for non-combustible building materials.
Because Monoglass is inorganic and non-combustible, it is approved for use in multi-story, multi-tenancy and high density structures.
Monoglass has been tested for Fire Gas Toxicity, as per the University of Pittsburgh Protocol. Under the fire conditions simulated, Monoglass produced a maximum of 3.5% concentration of CO2 Carbon Dioxide and 0.30% CO Carbon Monoxide.
As a result, Monoglass complies with strict requirements of The New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code, Article 15 Part 1120, and is listed as an approved product.
