PROMALIGHT® boards are produced in standard sizes. Smaller sizes are also available on request. Please contact your regional Promat agency to request your PROMALIGHT® sizes.

Length x width mm 
1000 x 500, 1200 x 1000
Thickness mm   
 3, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30

Additionally, even thinner boards are available upon request, down to 2mm. These products are then often referred to as thin sheet.

PROMALIGHT® boards can be shaped both manually and with stationary wood processing machinery. They can be cut, sawn, drilled and punched. The boards can be fi xed in place with glue or by mechanical means such as anchors, pins and clips.

Typical applications
< #Back#
Microporous insulation offers an extremely low thermal conductivity, close to the lowest theoretically possible at high temperatures. Microporous materials are the preferred choice when a large temperature reduction is required within a limited space, or when strict heat loss or surface temperature requirements are specified.

  • Back-up insulation in industrial furnaces
  • Aluminium industry (launders, holding & smelter furnace, …)
  • Glass & ceramics industry
  • Petrochemical industry (cracking furnace, hydrogen reformer, …)
  • Fuel cells (SOFC)
  • Thermal batteries
  • Data loggers (protection of electronic components)
  • Black box & VDR (Voyage Data Recorder) for air, rail, and marine
