Product catalog summary
European Technical Approval Overview
This document provides the European Technical Approval (ETA-13/0549) for MISAPOR, a cellular glass loose fill used for thermal insulation and frost protection, valid from 22 June 2013 to 22 June 2018.

Legal Bases and General Conditions
The approval is based on Council Directive 89/106/EEC. The Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik ensures compliance, with potential checks at manufacturing sites. The approval is non-transferable and can be withdrawn under certain conditions.

Specific Conditions of the Approval
  • Product Definition: MISAPOR is made from recycled glass powder, available in sizes 10/50 and 10/75.
  • Intended Use: Used as insulation/frost protection under foundations or slabs, and as lightweight fill.
  • Working Life: Expected to last 50 years under specified conditions.

Product Characteristics and Verification Methods
  • Composition and Production: Documented with the Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik.
  • Release of Dangerous Substances: Meets safety limits for chemical substances.
  • Density: Varies with compaction and moisture; specific values provided.
  • Particle Size Distribution: Measured per EN standards with cleanliness requirements.
  • Thermal Conductivity: Declared with high confidence.
  • Water Absorption: Tested under various conditions.
  • Load Bearing Capacity: Measured for oedometer modulus and compressive stress.

Additional Notes
Includes tables summarizing key data like chemical limits, density, thermal conductivity, water absorption, and load-bearing capacity. Compliance with national regulations is required.

Settlement and Creep Strains
Details long-term creep behavior using the giant oedometer test, with data on density, stress levels, and deformation for MISAPOR 10/50 and 10/75.

Reaction to Fire
Meets performance class A1 requirements without additional testing.

Evaluation and Attestation of Conformity and CE Marking
System 3 of attestation applies, requiring factory production control and initial type-testing. CE marking must include specific product and approval details.

Assumptions for Fitness of Use
Based on data with Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik. Changes in product or process must be reported. Installation should avoid excessive crushing, and design values should follow national provisions.

Indications to the Manufacturer
Packaging must protect from humidity. Manufacturing plants are located in Switzerland, Germany, and Italy.
