Sustainability

Kingspan Kooltherm Duct Insulation comprises a fibrefree rigid thermoset phenolic insulation core, faced on one side (external face) with an aluminium vapour barrier foil, and faced on the other side (internal face) with a glass tissue based facing. Both facings are autohesively bonded to the insulation core during manufacture.

Kingspan Kooltherm Duct Insulation has a 90% (or greater) closed cell structure and a compressive strength that typically exceeds 100 kPa at 10% compression. Solutions are available to accommodate the surface curvature of circular and flat oval ductwork with an outside diameter (O.D.) of 80 mm or greater.

Fire Performance

Kingspan Kooltherm Duct Insulation is certified, by FM Approvals, to Factory Mutual Research Approval Standard – Pipe Insulation Class Number 4924 when manufactured and installed in accordance with the conditions defined by the approval.

An Ecoprofile, certified by BRE (Building Research Establishment) Certification to the 2008 BRE Environmental Profiles Methodology, has been created for Kingspan Kooltherm Duct Insulation produced at Kingspan Insulation’s Pembridge, UK, manufacturing facility. BRE has assigned the product a 2008 Green Guide Summary Rating of A+, the best possible rating.

Load-bearing insulation inserts can be fabricated on site from standard Kingspan Kooltherm Duct Insulation boards to suit the whole range of duct dimensions and insulation thicknesses. They can withstand the loads imposed by HVAC / building services ductwork at locations where ductwork
supports and hangers are installed.

Kingspan Kooltherm Flat Insulated Duct Support Inserts are flat rectangular strips of Kingspan Kooltherm Duct Insulation. They are used with rectangular and flat oval ductwork.

Kingspan Kooltherm Circular Insulated Duct Support Inserts are curved strips of Kingspan Kooltherm Duct Insulation or Kingspan Kooltherm Pipe Insulation.They can not be used to support the compressive loads imposed by pipework carrying water or other liquids and should not be used in such applications.
