Description
Viroc is a composite material, composed by a compressed and dry
mixture of pine wood particles and cement.
It combines the flexibility of wood with the strength and
durability of cement, allowing a large range of applications, both
indoor and outdoor.
Viroc presents a non-homogeneous appearance, a product natural
feature.
Viroc can be factory calibrated/sanded (for
applications requiring tighter tolerances).Once calibrated,
presents visible wood particles on the surface.
Thickness sanded (mm):8, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24and28.
Dimensions: 2600x1250mm/3000x1250mm, other dimensions under
request.
Color: black, grey, white, yellow, red, Ocher
Advantages
Non toxic
Does not contain dangerous volatile compounds and is free of
silica, asbestos and formaldehyde.
Sound insulation
It has good sound insulation properties due to its high weight.
The sound insulation index varies according to board thickness.
Airborne sound resistance is 31 or 37 dB depending on whether board
thickness is 8mm or 22mm, respectively.
Weight resistant
The board has a bending strength that enables it to be used as
resistant structural element. It is therefore used in flooring and
as roof support.
The bending strength is 9N/mm2 with a modulus of elasticity of 4500
N/mm2.
Easy installation
It can be cut, drilled and sanded. The tools and fastening systems
used for Viroc boards are identical to those used with wood.
Fire retardant
It prevents the spread of fire. According to the ignitability test
conducted, it is classified as B-s1, d0 in accordance with EN
13501-1.
Moisture resistant
Under the action of water it does not disaggregate.
It is a material impermeable to water.
Thermal insulation
It has good thermal resistance properties, meaning that it can
function as insulation in both cold and hot temperatures.
Insect resistant
It will not degrade with the action of living organisms such as
fungi, termites or any kind of insects.

Applications
The Viroc board is used for structural or covering functions. It
may be applied on wood or metallic supporting structures.
It can be used in the following applications due to its
versatility:
*Facades
*Partition walls and walls cladding
*Flooring
*Suspended ceilings
*Roof supports
*Lost formwork
*Interior design
*Urban equipment
