CB Frost supplies the full range of BISCO® cellular silicones and composites in a wide range of thicknesses. The BISCO® cellular silicones meet the most stringent industry requirements for fire, smoke & toxic fumes and extends the temperature range over which most cellular elastomers have been found to be effective. Excellent compression set values mean increased long-term reliability for sealing, cushioning and anti-vibration applications. CB Frost also supplies the full range of ARMACELL Rail SD which is highly-flexible, closed-cell insulation foam with improved fire retardant properties, low smoke generation and in-built Microban® antimicrobial protection for railway vehicles.
