Insulation

Kalzip insulation products conserve energy through their use by reducing the requirement to heat or cool buildings, limiting CO2 emissions.  They are also HCFC and HFC free and have a global warming potential (GWP) rating of less than five

The most common insulation used is a quilt type, non-hygroscopic material that will not absorb any moisture, but simply retain it on the surface of its fibres thus encouraging evaporation to take place.

The use of a compressed insulation, completely filling the roof void above the vapour control layer, together with the breathability of the Kalzip sheet seams, negates the need for a breather membrane material within the Kalzip roof system.

Kalzip’s range of insulation products includes glass and rockfibre quilt, semi-rigid slab and high density slab.  At the heart of the range are Kalzip Insulation Plus 35 and Plus 37, which are high performance mineral fibre quilts offering extremely efficient thermal performance.

To complete the range further, glass and rockfibre insulants are available offering a wide variety of thermal performance values together with the flexibility of use where additional acoustic performance is required.
