Insulating your shipping container as you turn it into a home, office, storage building, school, or other useful structure, is such an important step that you should use only the best possible product. Buy InSoFast shipping container insulation panels for your project in Saint Augustine, FL, to save time and money while ensuring no-gap, continuous insulation coverage to stabilize temperatures, eliminate condensation, and minimize noise.
The Power of InSoFast Insulation, Explained
Engineered continuous insulation that operates as a wall system of interlocking 2×4 foot panels with various thicknesses and R-values is the secret to InSoFast insulation methods. Our products are appropriate for new construction, remodels, indoor and outdoor applications, and even shipping container conversion projects.
The reason InSoFast works so well is the closed-cell EPS foam construction. It’s non-porous, so vapor and air won’t pass through, resulting in stronger insulation. This strength of insulation results in twice as much R-value per inch. The higher the R-value, the more powerful the insulation.
Options for Container Conversion Insulation
As you embark upon a shipping container transformation, you’ll find that there are many insulation options.
Fiberglass insulation is one option. InSoFast insulation is preferable because it’s much easier to install and provides continuous insulation. Fiberglass insulation will also settle over time, requires a wooden frame for application, and encourages rot and mold because it absorbs moisture.
Another option is spray foam insulation. It’s a more flexible option, and it works well. However, it costs more, requires more time, and usually requires professional installation. This messy, difficult to apply insulation is not one for the hobbyist or non-professional.
Our Expanded Polystyrene foam panel insulation doesn’t cost as much, provides superior insulating power, and is easy to work with. InSoFast panels are quickly and easily attached with PL Premium 3X Stronger Construction Adhesive. Since they’re thin and include an embedded frame, you’ll maximize the amount of leftover usable interior space. Even better, most do-it-yourselfers can complete the project with a utility knife, construction adhesive, a caulking gun, and a saw of some kind.
InSoFast Insulation Is Best for Shipping Containers
For the side walls of most shipping containers, choose InSoFast CX container panels. They’re 2” thin with a panel size of 44×24 inches. Each panel follows an 11-inch repeating pattern of corrugation to create a wall system of insulation. When installed horizontally, the studs will line up perfectly against the interior ridges of the container.
The other option for your shipping container insulation is InSoFast InSerts. The EPS foam will fill the spaces made by the corrugation. When construction adhesive is used to hold these in place, the result will be a flush, flat surface without gaps for insulation-defeating air. These Inserts should be paired with either InSoFast UX 2.0 or EXi 2.5 panels for an air-tight system of wall insulation.
