iFLEXFOAM
Rigid underslab insulation
LAMINATED ON EACH SIDE. ISOCLICK CLIPPING SYSTEM.
Laminated with a membrane on both surfaces and equipped with the unique ISOCLICK four-sided clipping system, iFLEXFOAM is designed to provide continuous and uniform insulation beneath the concrete slab. Both flexible and highly resistant, it offers numerous benefits that make it the optimal choice for under-slab insulation.
NEW CONSTRUCTION
Residential. Commercial. Industrial. Institutional.
Advantages
CONTINUOUS & UNIFORM INSULATION
Unparalleled performance of the ISOCLICK clipping system. The four-sided interlocking system ensures continuous and even insulation, since the panels remain in place and secure during and after installation and when concrete is poured.
OFFERING SUPERIOR RESISTANCE
Resistant and incomparable flexibility. With its laminated membranes on each side, installation of iFLEXFOAM guarantees an under-slab insulation with a high resistance to breakage and over which you can easily move.
INSTALLATION: MORE EFFICIENCY
Reduce your labour costs. Thanks to a unique clipping system, flexible and durable iFLEXFOAM insulation makes your life on the jobsite easier.
Unparalleled performance of the ISOCLICK clipping system
- Prevents panel movement and the appearance of non-insulated gaps.
- Ensures continuous and uniform insulation.
- Stable and permanent insulation value.
- Increased comfort and energy efficiency.
Resistant and incomparable flexibility
- Allows installation of the panel even when the surface is not perfectly level.
- Laminated membranes give it great strength and flexibility, reducing breakage and product loss on the jobsite.
- Available in different densities to meet building requirements.
- High resistance to water and moisture, as well as freezing and thawing.
Reduce your labour costs
- Panels bond with uneven ground and make any required repositioning easy.
- No need to seal joints between panels.
- Optimum size minimizes seams and waste.
- Reduces work time and labour costs.
PATENTED PRODUCT. UNIQUE ISOCLICK CLIPPING SYSTEM.
Flexible and highly resistant, iFLEXFOAM is the first and only under-slab insulation with an unequaled 4-sided clipping system that prevents panels from moving during the job. No need to seal joints and less breakage for unparalleled efficiency on site!

Installation
iFLEXFOAM product is simple and quick to install.
To ensure maximum insulating performance, make sure the installation follows the recommended practices.
*Videos are for information purposes only. Refer to the installation recommendations and effective requirements in your area before any work starts.
- Soil preparation: Level crushed granular base or sand.
- Install insulation boards over the entire surface to be insulated.
- Start the installation by positioning the ‘start’ arrow at the corner of the wall to ensure the panels are properly interlocked (as you would for floating floors).
- It is recommended to remove the tip of the panels that are installed on the perimeter.
- Install a vapour barrier polythene over the entire surface (if specified in the building code in your area) to ensure airtightness, moisture protection and soil gas control.
- Install wire mesh (if required) for slab reinforcement.
- A hydronic radiant floor system can also be installed on the wire mesh.
- Pour the concrete slab.
SUSTAINABLE BUILDING
LONG-TERM PERFORMANCE
- Stable insulation value year after year.
- Increased comfort and energy savings thanks to continuous and uniform underslab insulation.
