Tougher fire safety standards for underground parking garages are lifting insulation sales at Hyundai L&C.
Hyundai L&C, a building materials maker under the Hyundai Department Store (069960) group, said on the 15th that sales of its Eco Spray non-combustible insulation rose 31% in the January-August period from a year earlier. Eco Spray, developed in-house by Hyundai L&C in 2023, is the only spray-applied non-combustible insulation made in Korea.
The company attributes the increase in demand to tightening safety rules. In July, the National Assembly passed a bill requiring finishing materials in underground parking garages to be non-combustible. "Inquiries about Eco Spray installation have surged over the past two months," a Hyundai L&C official said. "Because Eco Spray is the only spray-applied non-combustible insulation in Korea that can be used without constraints from the structure of a space, we expect the number of builders seeking it to grow further."
Most non-combustible insulation comes in board form, making it difficult to install on curved wall surfaces. Eco Spray is sprayed directly onto walls instead. It is made by mixing ultra-lightweight micro glass fiber from German building materials company Knauf Insulation with a water-based adhesive developed by Hyundai L&C.
In testing by the Korea Conformity Laboratories (KCL), Eco Spray recorded thermal conductivity of 0.034 W/mK when applied on its own, earning a top-tier insulation performance grade. Its non-combustible performance was tested by FITI Testing & Research Institute. The material barely burned when exposed to temperatures above 700 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes, and it exceeded the pass threshold by more than 60% in a gas toxicity test that measures the harmfulness of smoke released during a fire.
Hyundai L&C plans to expand the product's color range beyond the current white to include black, ivory and gray, and to improve ease of installation.
"More and more sites are looking not only at insulation grades and materials but also at product form and installation efficiency in order to meet stricter fire safety standards," said Cho Beom-jun, senior vice president of the sales strategy office at Hyundai L&C. "We will expand our lineup of high-performance building materials aligned with increasingly advanced construction and safety standards, and solidify our position as a global building materials company."
