Insultrak® insulation spacer – an eco-friendly solution

Insultrak® is a proprietary extruded polymer composite that is manufactured from 95% industrial mineral waste and recycled polymers. This eco-friendly green product can be used in all thicknesses of faced flexible fibre and reflective foil roof insulation materials.

Use of thicker fibre blanket materials to achieve thermal values

Since the inception of the SANS 10400-XA standard for energy usage in buildings, there has been a marked increase in the use of thicker fibre blanket materials to attain the required thermal values for a building’s design. Insultrak® provides the necessary spacing to allow the faced fibre insulation to attain maximum installed thickness and reduces pressure on the roof sheet or clip system.

Meeting thermal insulated requirements

The material meets all SANS 10177-10 (fire performance classification of thermal insulated building envelope systems) requirements. The Insultrak® spacer improves the overall thermal value of the insulation material once installed, by providing the maximum return loft of the fibre blanket. The use of the spacer increases the thermal value of the insulation by up to 77%. This also excludes the thermal value provided by the spacer itself which is a further Thermal Resistance (R-Value) of 0.35 m²K/w.

Leading innovators and suppliers

With more than 25 years of experience in the roof insulation industry, the company has been one of the leading innovators and suppliers of most commercially available roof insulation products in South Africa. It is also a founding member of the Thermal Insulation Products and Systems Association of South Africa (TIPSASA).
