MagO Cladding System
The MagO Cladding System is a clip applied, non-combustible cladding with 4 sided ship-lap edges and integral pressure-equalized drainage-cavity (rain-screen). The system readily adjusts to adding rigid insulation applied behind the clips or high performance vacuum insulation (R63 / inch) between the clips. Exterior and interior corners use one machined edge and one field-cut edge making installation a breeze.
Panels are provided primed, ready for top-coating with latex, enamel, urethane, stuccos, potassium-silicate paints, 3MDinoc film, powder coating, and digitally printed aluminum skins to name a few.
Standard panel sizes are nominal 2×4 ft (588x1180mm), 2×2 ft (588x588mm) and can be ordered for horizontal or vertical orientation. Custom sized panels are also available.

Aerogel Insulation
CBT and Kavi Insulation are now stocking 1cm thick Aerogel Felt insulation in Vancouver. We are the North American provider for Aerogel Felt and Granules made in Turkiye by Levron Chemical using their proprietary Sol-Gel technology.
Aerogel Felt enhances high performing buildings, mechanical systems, marine applications and much more due to it amazing characteristics, including:
- R12 per inch of thermal insulation.
- Super-hydrophobic, contact angle of 165 degrees. Water can’t pass through.
- Highly permeable.
- Non-combustible, tested to ASTM E136 and CAN/ULC S114
- Glass felt performs up to 650 degrees Celsius, Ceramic felt to 1300 degrees Celsius.
- Low emissivity. Surfaces feel cooler than expected.
- Non-toxic, safe and easy to use. Mold resistant.
- Useful as a filtration medium with a surface area of 700 square meters per gram.
- Long life-span.
- Provides sound abatement.
- High compressive strength yet light-weight.
What uses can you think of for Aerogel Felt?
- Exterior building insulation, cladding can be fastened directly through it with no need for stand-off brackets or furring strips. Reduces the overall wall thickness.
- Pipe and tank insulation, it is easy to wrap around small diameters.
- Marine engine enclosure insulation for sound and heat.
- Sub-floor insulation, between the floor and the flooring.
- Aircraft insulation.

AluMag is a Non-combustible aluminum composite panel (ACP) for exterior and interior wall cladding. Its core is made from the same minerals used in fire extinguishers and is suitable for the exposed face in a 2 hour fire separation test with 0 flame spread and very low smoke produced. AluMag panels are continuously made from roll stock 1.2 and 1.5 meter wide x up to 6 meters or longer, 6 mm thin or less (48 & 60 inch x 20 ft x 1/4 in) and are offered in a huge array of colors and appearances, they are easy to work and install using standard tools.
Vacuum Insulation Panels made by Panasonic These long lasting, highly efficient and easy to install insulation panels are the most efficient to protect buildings and occupants against the transmission of thermal and sound energy. Panasonic VIPs provide R63 per inch and are a complete water (vapor) and air barrier. Panasonic VIPs are best installed as part of the building envelope as part of the AluMag and MagO Cladding Systems.
MagO Panels
MagO magnesium oxide ceramic cement panels are a superior alternative to gypsum and fiber cement products for interior and exterior applications. MagO Panels can also be used as non-combustible structural sheathing for floors, walls and roofs. Made literally from minerals required for the health of people, plants and animals these products have low embedded energy and sequester CO2 making them one of the most sustainable materials that are highly resistant to damage from fire, water, insects, mold, impact damage and sound transmission. MagO panels are easily worked using common tools and do not include silicates or other toxins making them safe to work with.
