New materials are emerging in the construction industry, and calcium silicate board has become a valuable material for architects and engineers. This material, also known as fiber cement board or calcium silicate fiberboard, is made from cement, silicate, and cellulose fibers, offering excellent fire performance and durability.
Let's discuss the fire resistance of calcium silicate boards. According to China’s industry standards, calcium silicate boards are usually categorized into Class A1 and Class A2.
Leboom's calcium silicate boards have even achieved Class A1 fire resistance, which allows them to withstand high-temperature combustion without producing any harmful gases. This means that in the event of a fire, calcium silicate boards can effectively prevent fire spread and protect human safety.
In addition to its fire resistance, calcium silicate board is available in various sizes and models. Common thicknesses include 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 15mm, 18mm, 20mm, and 24mm, with customizable length and width options to meet specific project requirements.
This flexibility gives designers and engineers more freedom to choose the most suitable specifications for different applications.
Calcium silicate board has a wide range of applications in modern construction. It can be used for walls, ceilings, floors, and roofs, providing thermal insulation, sound insulation, and fire protection.
As an external wall insulation material, it offers excellent thermal performance and helps prevent fire spread.
For interior decoration, calcium silicate board can be used for partition walls, ceilings, and floor coverings, offering moisture-proof, mold-proof, and sound-insulating properties.
In addition, it can also serve as a waterproof layer in road construction and provide fireproof isolation in special environments.
Calcium silicate board comes in various specifications and models, customizable to different project needs. With its comprehensive performance in thermal insulation, sound insulation, and fire prevention, it has become one of the standard exterior wall products today — especially in thermal insulation and decorative integrated wall systems.
It is an inorganic, nonmetallic material made primarily from siliceous and calcareous components, offering excellent thermal insulation performance. In integrated heat insulation panels, calcium silicate board effectively prevents heat transfer, maintains stable indoor temperatures, and reduces overall energy consumption. It is also a non-combustible material with outstanding fire resistance.
Another important advantage lies in its ease of construction and cost efficiency.
1. Calcium silicate board is simple to install, fast to construct, and highly efficient. When used in integrated insulation systems, it shortens the construction cycle, improves efficiency, and helps reduce enterprise costs.
2. The service life of calcium silicate board is remarkably long. It can maintain its superior thermal insulation and fire-resistant properties over time. In integrated insulation panels, its use extends the building’s lifespan, minimizes the need for repairs or replacements, and further lowers maintenance expenses.
Additionally, this material is environmentally friendly. Its production process generates no harmful substances or pollution, and both aluminum and calcium silicate boards are 100% recyclable—meeting the requirements of sustainable development. Compared with other materials used in thermal insulation panels, calcium silicate board offers better overall performance and cost-effectiveness, making it a more suitable choice for external wall applications.
