Basotect

Basotect is a high-quality melamine foam. This acoustic foam is an excellent choice for sound insulation and absorption in various sectors such as construction, transport, and the furniture industry. Thanks to its unique properties, this material offers a versatile solution for acoustic and thermal challenges.

What is Basotect?

Basotect is a foam made from melamine resin, a thermosetting plastic. The open cell structure of the foam allows air to circulate freely, contributing to excellent sound absorption and thermal insulation. Moreover, it is lightweight, making it easy to handle and applicable in various industries.

The properties of melamine foam

Melamine foam is distinguished by the following properties:

Sound absorption

Reduces noise and improves the acoustics in spaces such as offices, classrooms, and hospitality venues.

Fire safety

Meets DIN 4102 class B1 and remains stable up to a temperature of 80 degrees Celsius. Minimal smoke development makes it suitable for environments with strict safety standards.

Lightweight

With only 12 kg/m³, it is easy to handle and install.

Thermal insulation

Keeps heat in and improves energy management in buildings.

Applications of Basotect melamine foam

Basotect melamine foam is ideal for spaces where speech intelligibility is essential, such as:

Construction and industrial environments
Office buildings and meeting rooms
Audio studios
Schools and universities
Gyms and sports facilities
Concert halls and hospitality venues

In addition, this acoustic foam is widely used in hospitals, manufacturing environments, and other locations with high safety requirements due to its fire safety properties.

Disadvantages of melamine foam

A point of attention is that melamine foam is sensitive to moisture, which can cause distortion. Ensure a dry environment to optimise its lifespan. Additionally, melamine foam is susceptible to damage from direct contact with hands.
