ICB — Expanded Cork Board

100% natural cork granules expand with steam and agglomerate with their own resin. ICB delivers thermal, acoustic and anti-vibration performance in a single material — used in roof, wall, floor and cold-room sections.

Applications

In-room acoustic absorption with ICB

Acoustic Correction (Absorption)

Behind perforated cladding or as a bare panel; sample α ≈ 0.40 at 500 Hz for 50 mm ICB.

Recommended: ICB
Overhead noise with ICB + suspended plasterboard

Ceiling / Overhead Noise

ICB + suspension profile with double plasterboard improves airborne/impact noise; lightweight and vapour-permeable.

Recommended: ICB
Radiant floor/wall heating

Radiant Floor/Wall Heating

Grooved ICB boards act as pipe carrier + thermal/acoustic insulation; finished with reflective board and screed.

Recommended: ICB
Reabilitacork / Cork OSB

Reabilitacork / Cork OSB

ICB with integrated OSB strips for fast mounting and good compressive strength in facade/wall renovation.

Recommended: ICB
Freezing chamber details

Cold Rooms — Freezing

Layered solution with two ICB layers, vapour barrier and waterproofing for conditions down to −40 °C.

Recommended: ICB
Storage chamber details

Cold Rooms — Storage

Sections that reduce thermal bridges and keep a stable interior for the 0–12 °C range.

Recommended: ICB
