Poraver®
PORAV-0001
Poraver® is a lightweight aggregate that is manufactured from postconsumer recycled glass. In a special procedure, broken glass is finely crushed and expanded to form spherical granules. Poraver® offers a very
low weight at high compressive strength, excellent thermal and acoustic insulation properties and chemical resistance. In addition, this material is non-flammable, weather-resistant, offers no habitat for bacteria and
prevents danger of silicosis thanks to its amorphous glass structure. Widely used within the construction and chemical industries, Poraver® serves as a lightweight aggregate in a broad spectrum of products including drymortar and construction chemical products, lightweight concrete, acoustic, heating, cooling panel systems, fire resistant boards, stone veneer sidings as well as plasters and stuccos.
