4. What is T-MAX?
T-MAX is a sound absorption and insulation product developed for building interiors and
exteriors with environment friendliness in mind. Made from 100% polyester fiber, it is a
revolutionary material completely non-toxic and is also 100% recyclable, semi-permanent
and highly durable.
50-year performance guarantee
T-MAX keeps performing over time, even in harsh environmental conditions. T-MAX is the
only insulation to carry a 50-year performance guarantee. As long as the insulation was
installed correctly, and remains adequately maintained, it is guaranteed to last up to the
full 50 years. (The guarantee ends after this time but T-MAX will keep on performing.)
Non-Toxic and safe
T-MAX does not generate harmful material such as VOC, formaldehyde because it is
manufactured with 100% polyester, is environment-friendly, non-toxic and safe. It is
utilized in many indoor interiors as sound absorption finishing material for the theater,
church, gymnasium, and auditorium.
Therefore are NO glues used in making and T-MAX products, whereas some other forms
of insulation are bonded with toxic glues. Glues are known to break down over time,
releasing a chemical called formaldehyde, which cause health concerns.
Polyester has no negative effect on health. Heat-bonded polyester does not release toxic into the air. This is one reason why T-MAX is
used in many hospital and buildings with air-conditioning systems. T-MAX is fire-resistant, fire retardant and non-combustible.
Easy to install
T-MAX is easy and fast to install. It can be laid over ceiling framing, or fastened onto the wall framing. To fit a specific area, T-MAX can
simply be altered scissors and knives are not needed.
100% Recyclable
T-MAX is 100% recycled with little environmental waste generated because it is manufactured with 100% polyester. T-MAX is well-
recognized for its environment-friendliness by obtaining the environmental mark.
Various application platforms
T-MAX can be installed onto many different areas from residential to commercial buildings. It’s environmental friendly material can
substitute materials used in the existing market such as furniture, automobile, sound interception material between layers, outer
decoration panel, and air-conditioning facility.
Close up
T-MAX is made of a unique mix of premium quality polyester fibers. One type is the hollow conjugate fiber. Because the fiber is hollow, it
traps air within itself, as well as around it.”Conjugate” means two types of polyester are joined together to form the fiber. This creates a
fiber that looks and acts like a spring gives T-MAX its unique thickness and bounce.
Hollow conjugate fiber technology was initially used in quality sleeping bags and extreme weather clothing. T-MAX led the way globally
in introducing these patented fibers to ceiling and wall insulation.
5. Environmentally Friendly
Polyester
Polyester
Polyester is more cost effective and highly affordable than any other materials, providing people of all budgets with an option to consider the benefits of both. This
delivers outstanding insulation in ceilings and walls.
Polyester Fibers have a wide variety of end uses in field such as medical, food storage and packaging, apparel and bedding, and of course, the insulation industry. This
evidently demonstrates a high degree of flexibility, adaptability and user ability.
Why Polyester?
As more and more people consider the possible concerns of fiberglass materials going into their homes or offices, Architects, Builders, and Designers are using safe,
soft and easy to install products such as Polyester. Hueintek Inc. manufactures polyester for residential and commercial usage. Polyester is non-toxic fiber, which is
cost effective and easy to install.
Polyester is insect proof, and is not attacked by - nor does it provide nourishment for - keratin eating insects.
Polyester is hydrophobic and naturally repels water so that the product remains largely unaffected by accidental exposure to moisture.
Increasingly, polyester is providing the building industry with an effective yet economical alternative. Polyester is used in a wide variety of applications where safety
is of the utmost concern, confirming its status as safe, cost effective and long term option for architects, builders and home owners.
