While Calcium Silicate raised floor panels have historically served as a dense non-combustible option, Steel-Encapsulated Magnesium Oxide (MgO) raised floor panels represent a superior engineering upgrade—delivering higher impact resistance, lower dead-load weight, superior screw-holding strength, and zero silica dust hazard.
| Technical Parameter | Steel-Encapsulated MgO Floor | Calcium Silicate Raised Floor | Specification Advantage |
| Material Core Density | 1,200 – 1,450kg/m3 | 1,500 – 1,700kg/m3 | MgO is 15-20% lighter (reduces floor slab dead load) |
| Concentrated Load (CISCA) | 3,500N – 6,700N | 3,000N-5,000 N | MgO withstands higher dynamic/point loads |
| Brittleness & Fracture Risk | High toughness, shock-absorbent | High brittleness, prone to micro-cracks | MgO prevents corner breakage during handling |
| Screw Holding / Anchorage | Exceptional thread-engagement | Poor / Requires specialized anchors | MgO allows direct mechanical fastening |
| Occupational Health (OSHA) | Zero crystalline silica dust | High crystalline silica risk | MgO eliminates toxic dust hazards during cutting |
| Fire Performance | Class A1 / Non-combustible | Class A1 / Non-combustible | Both meet non-combustible standards |
