The optimal termite-resistant insulation material as a basic insulation! Continuing experiments on termite damage to improve environmental safety and termite resistance performance [Over 20 years of experience in building-related fields].
"Perform Guard," the foundation insulation anti-termite material that protects your important home from termite damage. It is an anti-termite insulation material made using technology developed by AFM Corporation, which uniformly incorporates a harmless inorganic compound (boron-based) to the human body. Since 1990, AFM Corporation has been conducting termite experiments on anti-termite insulation materials for over 24 years, continuously carrying out damage tests in the United States and Japan, aiming to improve environmental safety and anti-termite performance. For the first time in the world, the anti-termite performance of Perform Guard was recognized, receiving special approval under the building code of the National Association in 2000. It is the first anti-termite insulation material in Japan, with over 20 years of performance related to buildings and over 15 years related to foundation insulation. In terms of performance, the anti-termite capability lasts semi-permanently, and since there is no natural decomposition of the components, it does not cause soil contamination and does not harm the global environment. It is a product that does not fall under the regulations for sick house measures, does not emit harmful substances such as formaldehyde, and is considerate of health and the environment. *If you would like a sample, please contact us with "Request for Cut Sample" noted. *For more details, please contact us or download the PDF.
