Insulation

Lower carbon footprint targets across the construction industry have resulted in greater interest being paid to building insulation, and particularly to alternative forms and methods of insulation. Here are four CPD seminars from those working at the cutting edge.
Seminar, by FOAMGLAS®
Cellular glass is high-quality thermal insulation for structural and ‘high risk’ applications. This informative seminar outlines a variety of system solutions for the entire building envelope and demonstrates how the properties of cellular glass insulation can facilitate imaginative design, whilst meeting the demands of building physics. From reducing thermal bridging in foundations or at wall/floor junctions, to combating the effects of fire and moisture, cellular glass can reduce risk across the lifetime of the building.
