Johns Manville Incombustible Microlite® insulation provides excellent acoustical and thermal performance for use in a variety of marine applications. It is the recommended solution when design parameters prohibit the use of a rigid product. Incombustible Microlite is manufactured using our flame-attenuated process, delivering a product that is resilient and lightweight . In addition, it is US Coast Guard approved and complies with US Navy and Nuclear Regulatory Commission product standards.
High Thermal Performance - Extremely low conductivity of Incombustible Microlite assures optimum operating efficiency of shipboard heating and air conditioning systems.
Fire Safety - Coast Guard/IMO Approved 164.109/38/0 as an incombustible material. It also meets the requirements of NFPA 90A and 90B Standards, and has an FHC flame spread of less than 25 and a smoke developed rating of less than 50 per ASTM E 84..
Noise Control - Excellent sound absorption characteristics to reduce the level of unwanted noise.
Fast Installation - Easily cut and installs with a minimum of effort.
Superior Performance - Properly installed, will remain unaffected by age and temperature change.
