Between the concrete roof and the new external skin…
Fantastic thermal insulation values for the winter and unusually good summertime heat-shielding insulating properties – thanks to the excellent thermal storage capacity of isofloc cellulose insulation, it was once again the customer’s first choice!
You can find out more about these product characteristics in our series of articles on the building physics properties of isofloc.
A hotel in Quickborn, Germany
An especially demanding case - with a concrete roof - cleverly solved.
A rare but good example: The solid roof was insulated with isofloc. Just imagine a concrete roof with the steel reinforcing rods sticking out.
These reinforcing rods were to serve as the bearer construction for the new roof skin.
And between them? Isofloc!
The solution:
The installation in detail:
The interesting roof construction can be seen in a number of the pictures!
Who performed the installation?

How thick should the insulating layer be?
As basic rule is: As thick as possible! This has less to do with the fact that we want to sell as much insulation as possible (naturally we are in business to sell insulation :-) ), but rather with the fact that over the years the recommendations for the optimum insulation thickness are continually being revised. This is because of
- the ever increasing price of energy
- and the associated rise in running costs for tenants
Therefore, such statements as “10cm are absolutely fine” are completely insufficient.
