I sidste uge deltog Tinby Skumplast A/S på Building Green i Forum, hvor messen fandt sted for 7. gang.
Building Green er en fag-event hvor besøgende kan stifte bekendtskab med den seneste udvikling inden for bæredygtighed. 8107 besøgende lagde vejen forbi messens 120 udstillere.
Construction and Environmental Benefits
Our representatives were ready at the PUR Section’s stand to answer questions about the construction and environmental benefits of using polyurethane (PUR) and polyisocyanurate (PIR) for insulation in building projects.
PUR og PIR’s isolerende egenskaber ved Kim Hansen fra Tinby Skumplast noget om. Siden 1978 har han produceret og leveret specialfremstillede skumplader i PUR og PIR, til kunder indenfor bl.a. byggeriet. Han melder om et par travle messedage, med mange interessante samtaler. Især var interessen stor fra rådgivere og arkitekter, der lagde vejen forbi standen.
Bæredygtig og effektivt isoleringsmateriale
"It is my impression that the use of PUR and PIR as insulation in construction is still a relatively new concept for many, but the interest in this sustainable and efficient insulation material is definitely growing," says Kim Hansen from Tinby Skumplast.
The use of cellular plastic as insulation in façade elements makes it possible to construct highly insulated houses with thinner exterior walls. For example, a 140-square-meter house insulated with cellular plastic instead of other insulation types will gain almost 8m² of additional usable space. This makes a significant difference, especially in areas with high square meter prices.
Good Structural Properties
"We supply large quantities of PUR and PIR for facade retrofitting, and we find that customers also appreciate the material's good structural properties, which provide a solid foundation for the final wall cladding," says Kim Hansen.
Several of Tinby Skumplast’s customers were also present at the trade fair to showcase facade insulation systems incorporating PUR and PIR. Among them were Holm Huse, which markets the ISO-KON+ element system, and Briiso, which provides systems for building retrofitting.
