Rigid insulation is vital in construction, providing energy efficiency and structural support. It comes in various forms, each tailored to specific needs like expanded or extruded polystyrene and polyisocyanurate.
What Is Rigid Insulation?
Rigid insulation consists of rigid panels or boards made from materials like expanded polystyrene (EPS), extruded polystyrene (XPS) or polyisocyanurate (polyiso). These materials are engineered to offer high levels of insulation.
One of the primary uses of rigid insulation is in building envelopes, which helps create a thermal barrier between the interior and exterior environments. It’s commonly installed in walls, roofs and floors to reduce heat transfer and maintain comfortable indoor temperatures year-round.
Rigid insulation also plays a crucial role in moisture management, preventing condensation and moisture buildup within the building envelope, which can lead to mold and structural damage.
Rigid insulation also finds application in various other sectors beyond building construction, including refrigeration, transportation and industrial processes. Its versatility and excellent insulating properties make it valuable across diverse industries, contributing to energy efficiency and sustainability efforts worldwide.
