OPTIM-R E is an optimum performance next generation insulation solution from Kingspan Insulation. They are comprised of rigid vacuum insulation panels with a micro–porous core which is evacuated, encased and sealed in a thin, gas–tight envelope, giving outstanding thermal resistance, with the thinnest possible solution to insulation problems. Kingspan OPTIM-R E is encapsulated in a coating for increased robustness and easier handling on-site. The vacuum insulation panels are accompanied with rigid thermoset polyisocyanurate (Polyiso) insulation infill panels which can be cut to fit around problem areas such as sky lights or other roofing penetrations. In retrofit applications, these systems provide solutions for areas that previously would have remained un–insulated because of insufficient space available.
In new constructions, the Kingspan OPTIM-R E can significantly enhance U–values / R–values in areas that would otherwise be accepted as diminishing the overall thermal performance. The high level of thermal efficiency with minimal thickness, achieved by these systems which provide solutions for applications where a lack of construction depth or space is an issue. The Kingspan OPTIM-R E can also be used in a tapered roofing system.
