Description
Cementitious, mineral composites have been favored by architects and designers around the world for their superior fire properties, relative light weight, and absence of harmful, off-gassing content. We feel that wall surfacing, which exposes large areas to potential fire hazard and circulated air should be safe: noncombustible and free of formaldehyde. Wood paneling products do not meet these criteria. (Formaldehyde is known to the State of California to cause cancer.)
The modularArts® Mineral Composite Panel surface is extremely hard, dense, and flexible. If damage should occur, repair is similar to drywall, but without the paper layer to rip. The feel of the panel surface is rock hard and ceramic-like. It is a fine and smooth, extremely dense cement that produces incredible detail. The overall weight of the panel is relatively light, and ranges between 1.5 and 2.5 lbs. per square foot depending upon the design. (for comparison, slate tiles range between 6 to 9 lbs. per square foot
