Resistant, durable, reliable and even environmentally friendly: fiber cement is one of the most advantageous solutions for the roofing of civil, industrial and agricultural buildings.
The cement matrix reinforced with Poly Vinyl Alcohol (PVA) fibers results in a malleable product that meets modern construction requirements. In fact, the PVA fibers impart high resistance to tensile stresses, buckling and impact and ensure long product life.
All manufacturers in the EU use these reinforcing fibers because tests have proved them compliant with the current standards in force in Italy and Europe (UNI EN 494 for corrugated sheet; and UNI 10636 indicating the modes for installation of such sheet).
Some Advantages:
FIREPROOF
This is one of the great assets of profiled sheets
FLEXIBLE BUT INDEFORMABLE
Light (12 kg/m2) and flexible, PVA CEMENT offers significant advantages for installation and maintenance thanks to the sturdiness and impact resistance.
HYGROTHERMAL PROPERTIES
It is permeable to steam and helps ensure heat insulation. In particular, this material makes it possible to control condensation and drain off excess moisture.
WEATHER RESISTANCE
It is resistant to the weather and chemicals such as sulphates and acid rain.
SOUND ABSORBENT
These products make the most of the remarkable sound-absorbent properties of PVA CEMENT.
DOES NOT OXIDIZE
This material does not oxidize and is not affected by microbial plants and animals (fungi, insects and rodents).
