NEW AND RENOVATION
Advantages
EFFICIENT THERMAL BARRIER
Continuous insulation with a stable and permanent insulation value. You benefit from superior insulation properties in a wide variety of sizes and thicknesses.
SUITABLE FOR MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS
Installs anywhere in the building. With a high permeability to water vapour, it can be installed both outside and inside walls and for applications below ground level, ensuring peace of mind for building owners.
INSTALLATION : MORE VERSATILITY
Lightweight. Simple. Convenient. ISOLOFOAM Type 1 panels come in a wide variety of sizes and thicknesses to maximize handling and installation time.
Continuous insulation with a stable and permanent insulation value
- Increases a building’s comfort and energy efficiency.
- Reduces undesirable heat transfer zones called thermal bridges year after year.
Installs anywhere in the building
- Commonly used in below-grade applications.
- Resistant to water and moisture, as well as to freezing and thawing, and dries once the soil drains.
- Non-Vapour Barrier: when installed outdoors, it allows moisture in the walls to escape, preventing it from being trapped and causing structural problems.
- No need to calculate the dew point.
Lightweight. Simple. Convenient.
- Easily installs indoors or outdoors.
- Several formats, custom dimensions and thicknesses available.
- Lightweight and easy to handle.
- Reduces installation time and labour costs.
- Lowest cost per R-value.
Slab. Foundation. Wall. Floor. Ceiling.
AN ECONOMIC, EFFICIENT INSULATION
Suitable for any type of project.
