The New Generation Building Material
Ans. The MgOX Board Product line is engineered to eliminate the toughest problems faced by architects, engineers, contractors, and builders today while also making construction easier. Addressing both, magnesium oxide boards result in lower construction costs during installation and reduced maintenance expenses over the lifespan of the building. MgOX Board Products provide a better alternative for healthy, affordable, durable, and energy efficient buildings

MgOX Board Products are a technologically advanced building material offering superior performance in every category when compared to traditional wood, gypsum, and cement based products. With notable characteristics, such as; fire resistance, weatherproof, resistance to mold and mildew, flexibility, thermal and sound insulation, impact resistance and so forth, MgOX Board Products have very low carbon footprint and it can be recycled or re-purposed.

MgOX Board Products combined to new SOLEID panels generation and incorporating nontoxic Nano-Carbon admixture component, will be providing to contractors and developers, the suitable material to meet the 21st Century construction codes with respect to environmental requirements.

MgOX Board products do NOT contain asbestos, gypsum, cement, formaldehyde, other harmful radioactive substances and benzene.

The use of magnesium oxide goes back many centuries, almost to the Pyramids. It was originally used to make mortars for masonry construction. MgOX board is all about new technologies and progress. Production and distribution of MgOX board is being expanded rapidly to meet the high demand around the world-including the potentially enormous North American construction market.

All of these impressive qualities prompted SOLEID Building Systems to manufacture and control the production of all the magnesium boards produced under the name of MgOX and which are used in the composition of SOLEID panels.
