Acoustics
Evalite Background blocks offer excellent sound insulation properties. When laid to form a cavity sound separating wall, they will achieve the required mass as given in the Building Regulations and Robust Details.
Exposed conditions
Evalite Background blocks are a robust product which can be used in exposed conditions*. 7.3 N/mm² products are also suitable for use in aggresive soil conditions. Please contact our Product Services department for further details.
Flooring
Evalite Background blocks are suitable as in-fill blocks for beam and block flooring systems. They should be specified as ‘for flooring’, in order that the correct manufacturing base is sourced.
Thermal
Evalite Background blocks, in conjunction with suitable thicknesses of insulation, are able to reach high levels of thermal insulation.
Fire
Concrete is an excellent fire resistant material. Evalite Background blocks are manufactured using Class 1 aggregates which provide the highest level of fire resistance for a given size.
