Facade insulation

Façade is the external front face of a building. Façade insulation functions as a barrier protect against heat, cold noise and fire.
It also protect buildings against the harsh weather and keeps the building dry & safe. It is advisable to consider non-combustible insulation in façade applications since it will reduce or delay the fire spread.
In a typical building, around 30%of the energy used to heat or cool is wasted due to poorly insulated walls. External insulated walls significantly reduces energy loss by wrapping the building with thermally resistant envelope, helping to improve comfort, reduce energy bill and carbon emission.
 
The facade of the new or existing building can be done with suitable system. KIMMCO-ISOVER offers durable, light weight glass wool products for all types of building and for different systems like ventilated façade, Cavity wall insulation and curtain wall.
 
KIMMCO-ISOVER’s façade insulation products are non combustible and hydrophobic in nature, does not attract moisture. The open cell structure keeps the insulation dry. Façade products are an excellent choice for ventilated and unventilated façade.The product is available unfaced- or with aluminum facing. 

Advantages:

  • Non-Combustible- classified as A1 as per EN standards
  • Enhanced thermal properties
  • Optimum acoustic performance
  • Durable
  • Mechanical stable
  • Moisture resistance



Ventilated Facade System:

KIMMCO-ISOVER’s façade insulation products are non combustible and hydrophobic in nature. The products are durable and does not have aging effect. Safe façade slabs (KSFI) are glass wool based and are available either un-faced, or faced with Aluminum foil or Black Glass Tissue (BGT). The product is suitable for all types of ventilated facades system (glass, granite, marble and aluminum).

Recomended Products:

Safe Facade Slabs (KSFI)



Cavity Wall System:

A cavity wall is made up of two walls with a gap in between known as the cavity; the outer leaf is usually made of brick, and the inner layer of brick or concrete block, with the cavity being usually filled with Insulation to get an excellent Thermal & Acoustic comfort.
Filling the cavity with the KIMMCO-ISOVER insulation material reduces the heat gain during summer and heat loss during winter through the building walls.
KIMMCO-ISOVER Glass wool are hydrophobic in nature with low thermal conductivity. When filled in cavity, it provides excellent thermal performance, Safe Cavity insulation (KSCI)  are available in un-faced and aluminum faced

Recommended Products:

Safe Cavity Insulation (KSCI)

 

Curtain Wall System:

Curtain wall systems are a non-load bearing structure of  an external wall. Curtain wall separates the exterior from interior supports its own weight and it transfers other load to the building structure. Low thermal conductivity and high fire rating of the curtain wall system is important because of heat loss through the wall, which affects the heating & cooling cost of the building. Fire usually spread through spandrel region, it is advisable to use non-combustible insulation materials for such applications and this will also provide higher R-value at these locations.
