Encapsulated magnesium oxide raised floors are a popular choice for commercial buildings, offering a robust and durable solution. This raised floor system consists of high-density magnesium oxide encapsulated in galvanized steel panels, providing exceptional strength and longevity. The panels are easy to install and remove, making them ideal for spaces that require frequent maintenance or upgrades.
Encapsulated magnesium oxide raised floors are recognized for their excellent fire resistance, rust resistance, high load capacity, and sound insulation properties, making them a safe and effective option for noise reduction in various commercial applications. The system’s modular design allows for flexible configuration and customization, ensuring it can adapt to the specific layout and design requirements of a building. These panels are non-flammable and comply with standards tested by CISCA, ensuring high performance and safety.

System performance standards are the primary consideration as they reflect the overall performance of a typical installation. While panel-specific standards, such as concentrated load ratings, are commonly used to specify floor systems, they do not accurately represent real-world performance. This is because testing is conducted on individual panel test blocks rather than the complete installed system, including its foundation structure.
| Type | Specification | Concentrated Load | Safety Factor | Impact Load | Ultimate Load | Uniform Load | Rolling load | Standard | Fire Protection | |
| International | mm | N | (min.2.0) | N | N | (N/M⊃2;） | 10times | 10000times | ||
| SC800 | 500*500/600*600 | ≥3550 | Pass | 536 | ≥11250 | 16100 | 3560 | 2670 | ClSCA | A1 |
| SC1000 | 500*500/600*600 | ≥4450 | Pass | 670 | ≥13350 | 23000 | 4450 | 3560 | ClSCA | A1 |
Except for the design load, the tests were conducted using the CISCA recommended test procedure for access floors.
1. The design load is tested using the CISCA concentrated load test method on the actual substructure rather than the steel block. The design load is determined by the smaller of the ultimate load divided by two or the point where permanent damage begins to occur (yield point).
2. The safety factor is the multiple of the design load and the ultimate load. International standards recommend a minimum of 2.
What is MgSO4 Raised Floor?
Magnesium oxide raised flooring is a durable and versatile flooring system made from high-density magnesium oxide encapsulated in a protective steel shell, often galvanized. This system is designed to provide exceptional strength, fire resistance, and durability, making it suitable for various commercial, industrial, and data center applications. The magnesium oxide material is naturally fire-resistant, offering enhanced protection in areas that require stringent fire safety standards. Additionally, the steel encapsulation protects the magnesium oxide from corrosion, ensuring longevity even in humid or chemically challenging environments. The flooring system is also known for its excellent sound insulation properties, making it ideal for spaces that require noise reduction, such as office buildings and server rooms. The modular design allows for easy installation, maintenance, and upgrades, with panels that can be quickly removed or replaced. This flexibility makes it especially useful in environments where infrastructure changes are frequent. Furthermore, magnesium oxide is an environmentally friendly material, contributing to sustainable building practices. With its combination of strength, safety, and sustainability, magnesium oxide raised flooring is becoming an increasingly popular choice for modern commercial and industrial spaces.
The production of MgSO₄ Encapsulated Raised Access Floor involves mixing magnesium sulfate (MgSO₄), magnesium oxide (MgO), reinforcing fibers, and additives to form a durable, fire-resistant core. The core is molded, compressed, dried, and hardened before being encapsulated with galvanized steel or aluminum foil for enhanced strength and moisture resistance. Panels undergo strict quality testing for load capacity, fire resistance, and moisture protection before being packaged and shipped. This flooring offers high strength, fireproofing, and eco-friendly benefits.
BULU encapsulated magnesium oxide raised floor panels weigh 12-13kg, significantly lighter than most other panels, which typically weigh 15kg or more. This lighter weight makes the panels easier for workers to transport and install, improving efficiency on-site. Additionally, because the panels are lighter, more units can be packed into a single shipping container, maximizing space and reducing sea freight costs. This combination of easier installation and cost savings on shipping makes our raised floor solution both practical and cost-effective for our clients.
Improved Acoustic Performance
Encapsulated calcium sulfate raised floors help improve the acoustic performance of a building, reducing noise transmission between floors and improving overall sound insulation. This is especially important in commercial buildings, where privacy and confidentiality may be required, or a quiet working environment is desired.
Enhanced Flexibility and Adaptability
Raised floor systems are designed to be highly flexible and adaptable, making it easier to reconfigure the layout of a space or install new equipment and services. This is especially important for commercial office buildings, where businesses may need to quickly adapt to changing market conditions or new technologies.
