What is Viterolite?
Viterolite® - The versatile sound absorber for challenging environments is sustainable, non-fibrous sound absorbing tiles. Viterolite was developed to meet requirements of a durable, sustainable sound absorber that is non-fibrous and overcomes issues of weather aging and contamination damage. Viterolite are pre-cast tiles made from expanded glass granules that are produced from recycled glass. The processed granules are bonded together using a polymer resin binder. Each granule inherently acts as an acoustic absorber and the polymer resin binder considerably enhances the impact resistance of the tiles. The result is a light-weight, porous, sound-absorbing panel with excellent impact resistance properties that are suitable for both external and indoor use.
They are an ideal choice for areas with challenging weather and impact conditions such as train stations, as well as indoor areas with high humidity or fire concerns. Unlike traditional porous or open-cell materials, its natural resistance to moisture ensures that the panels will not significantly retain or absorb moisture. Viterolite achieves the highest fire rating -‘Class O’ required by British building standards.
Viterolite Applications
Outdoor: exit ways, smoking areas, road barriers, exterior plant fences
Areas with challenging weather conditions
High fire safety areas
Plant rooms, substations, vent shafts and exits
Transport depots, road barriers
Airports, stations, parking exits
Machinery enclosures
Schools: sports halls, auditoriums
Health care: hospital, aged care
Wet areas: swimming pools, spas car washes
Interiors: plain, painted or rendered panels
