Marinite M
Marinite M Fireproof Marine Joiner Panels are lightweight, non-asbestos 4'x 8' sheets designed to provide structural strength and high thermal and acoustical insulating values in a variety of interior marine applications. Formed from calcium silicate with inert fillers and reinforcing agents, Marinite M panels are easily handled and cut to required shapes and sizes.
In addition to high strength and insulating values, Marinite M panels combine ease or erection, fire safety, durability, attractive appearance, and low maintenance for use as bulkheads, linings or ceiling material for new construction and reconversion of passenger vessels, cargo ships, tankers, drill rigs and platforms, plus for new construction and reconversion of U.S.C.G. and Navy vessels.
For greater design flexibility; Marinite M panels can be faced with a variety of decorative finishes including sheet metals and hard or soft plastic laminates. The panels provide an excellent base for melamine veneers, often preferred for their appearance and damage resistance.
