Pink Sisalation Thermal Slab is a semi-rigid 32 kg/m³ glasswool board with a Sisalation Heavy Duty 450 foil laminate bonded to one face, for commercial under slab and soffit work. CodeMark certified to AS 4859.1.

Four thicknesses

50 mm at R1.5, 68 mm at R2.0, 75 mm at R2.2 and 100 mm at R3.0, all 1200 x 2400 mm boards. Pack coverage runs from 14.40 m² down to 5.76 m² as the boards get thicker.

It absorbs sound as well

NRC is 0.70 at every thickness, with sound absorption of 1.00 at 250 Hz and 0.90 at 500 Hz. Under a slab or on an exposed soffit in a carpark or plant room, that is a genuine second reason to specify it rather than a footnote.

Limits worth reading before you order

The foil facing is a vapour barrier, so it is not the product where a vapour permeable layer is required. It must be kept dry at all times, before, during and after installation, and it is not suitable where high internal humidity is present for long periods. Do not modify the board, because that can void both its suitability and its compliance.

Fire

Group 1 to AS 5637.1. The unfaced 32 kg glasswool is non-combustible to AS 1530.1, and the facing has a flammability index of 5 or lower. Ignitability, spread of flame and heat evolved are 0, smoke developed is 2.

Thermal

Board density 32 kg/m³ semi-rigid glasswool
Facing Sisalation Heavy Duty 450 foil laminate, bonded to one side
Maximum service temperature 340 °C glasswool, 70 °C facing (ASTM C411/C447)
Thermal rating method Complies with AS/NZS 4859.1

Fire

Group number Group 1 (AS 5637.1)
Combustibility Non-combustible for the unfaced 32 kg glasswool component (AS 1530.1)
Flammability index of the facing 5 or lower (AS/NZS 1530.2)
Ignitability index 0
Spread of flame index 0
Heat evolved index 0
Smoke developed index 2
Heat release rate and SMOGRA Under 100 (AS ISO 9705)

Group 1 is the classification that lets this board be used as an exposed ceiling lining. Early fire hazard indices tested to AS/NZS 1530.3.

Acoustic

NRC 0.70 at every thickness
αw 0.25
Sound absorption at 250 Hz 1.00
Sound absorption at 500 Hz 0.90

Absorption measured to AS ISO 354 on the silver reflective face. Low frequency absorption improves with thickness, from 0.35 at 125 Hz on the 50 mm board to 0.85 on the 100 mm.

Material and handling

Composition Glasswool made from up to 80% recycled glass, FBS-1 bio-soluble
Moisture absorption Under 0.2% by volume after four days at 50 °C and 95% relative humidity
Fungi resistance Pass, no growth (ASTM C1338-14)
Ozone depleting substances None used in manufacture

Limits of use

Weather Must be kept dry at all times, before, during and after installation
Humidity Not suitable where high internal humidity is present for long periods
Vapour The foil facing is a vapour barrier, so do not use it where a vapour permeable facing is called for
Modification Do not modify the board, since that can void both suitability and compliance

Compliance

Certification CodeMark certified to AS 4859.1 for thermal performance
NCC 2022 thermal AS/NZS 4859.1 per Volume 1 J4D3(1) and ABCB Housing Provisions 13.2.2
NCC 2022 linings Meets the Group number requirements of Volume 1 S7C4 for wall and ceiling linings
NCC 2022 indices Does not exceed the spread of flame or smoke developed limits in Volume 1 S7C7

Compliance applies when the product is correctly specified and installed.

Fitting notes

Fixed to the underside of a concrete slab or soffit with the foil face left showing, so the board does both jobs at once, thermal and acoustic, with no separate lining. Set out the 1200 x 2400 sheets so the joints land on a fixing line and butt them tight, since an open joint shows up badly on an exposed soffit. Handle the boards by the edges to keep the foil unmarked. Keep them dry from delivery through to completion. Wet glasswool loses R-value and the facing can lift.
