The THERMOMASS System has undergone and continues to undergo extensive third party testing. Our connectors have been tested for tensile strength, compression strength, shear strength, fatigue and cyclic loads, low temperature stress fire resistance and flexure.

• Our family of connectors has been tested to have pullout capacities in concrete exceeding 5,000 lbs.
  
• The connectors also possess shear capacities as great as 2,500 lbs each.
  
• The tensile strength of the composite materials used in our family of connectors is up to 145,000 psi.

The connectors have been tested by a leading United States fire testing agency where a panel constructed with THERMOMASS fiber composite connectors was subjected to 1093° C (2000° F) for four hours with no degradation. The temperature of the surface of the wall opposite the fire rose only 20.8° C (37.6° F) during the testing period. The standard for passing this test was 121° C (250° F).

The THERMOMASS Building Insulation System has proven itself in the field and in the laboratory time and again, withstanding hail, tornadoes, earthquakes, hurricanes and fires. Additionally, the continuous concrete shell of a THERMOMASS building is very effective in reducing the ability of thieves and vandals to harm the property and products inside the facility. THERMOMASS panels are also resistant to insect and vermin infestation.

A building can not be truly called a safe facility unless it is also a healthy facility. Health experts know that mold and mildew are serious health issues in public buildings and homes. THERMOMASS impedes the moist environments that mold need to grow. Read more about how THERMOMASS can help eliminate mold health issues.
