Notes:
* Shading Co-efficient: The ratio of solar heat gain through Carbolite sheet to the solar heat gain of clear glass in a specific set of conditions.
** Solar Heat Gain: The amount of heat in W/m2 transmitted through the Carbolite sheets. Results are determined by the incidence of solar radiation.
*** U-Factor: The rate of heat transferred through the Carbolite sheet in W/m2 °C. The overall heat transfer co-efficient.
Fire Ratings: AS1530.3 1999
Carbolite sheets have been tested in accordance with Australian Standard 1530.3/1999. The test standard is for the early fire hazard properties of materials and covers four categories.
| 1. Ignitability Test Index 0-10 | 2. Spread of Flame Test Index 0-10 | 3. Heat Involved Test Index 0-10 | Smoke Developed Test Index 0-10 |
| Carbolite RESULTS | 0 | 0 | 0 | 2 |
