   In 1985, Owens-Corning acquired Aerospace and Strategic Metals Group in Newport Beach, California for $415 million from Armco Inc. [16] [17] The color PINK was trademarked through Owens-Corning in 1986, making it the first company to trademark a color. By 1990, Owens-Corning was the defendant in about 84,500 asbestos-related lawsuits.

3. Foam glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foam_glass

   Foam glass is fireproof, waterproof, non-toxic, corrosion-resistant, non-aging, non-radioactive, and insulating. It is a stable building exterior wall and roof insulation and sound insulation material. Foam glass does not absorb water. The cells are mostly closed, so there is no capillary rise.

4. List of insulation materials - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_insulation_materials

   This is a list of insulation materials used around the world. Typical R-values are given for various materials and structures as approximations based on the average of available figures and are sorted by lowest value. R-value at 1 m gives R-values normalised to a 1 metre (3 ft 3 in) thickness and sorts by median value of the range.

   It doesn't take sleuthing by the Pink Panther to recognize that with Owens Corning completing its acquisition of mineral wool insulation maker Thermafiber, it now has a broad portfolio of products ...

6. Building insulation material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation_material

   Rigid panel insulation, also known as continuous insulation [13] can be made from foam plastics such as polyisocyanurate or polystyrene, or from fibrous materials such as fiberglass, rock and slag wool. Rigid panel continuous insulation is often used to provide a thermal break in the building envelope, thus reducing thermal bridging.

7. Insulated glazing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulated_glazing

   Greater space increases the insulation value up to a point, but eventually with a large enough gap, convection currents begin to flow carrying heat between the panes within the unit. Typically, most sealed units achieve maximum insulating values using a space of 16–19 mm (0.63–0.75 in) when measured at the centre of the IGU.
