Overcome the challenges of creating shipping container homes with InSoFast insulation panels, the best of the foam board insulation options for shipping containers. Our products are engineered to work with the design of the shipping container itself.
The InSoFast insulation products create continuous insulation systems through pieces that connect to create entire gap-free units. The panels are made of closed-cell EPS foam, injection-molded to work on all flat surfaces, incorporate a built-in frame, and make the most of every precious inch of space in a shipping container.
The Substantial Importance of Insulation Designed for Shipping Container Conversions
When used as a unit for creating a home, office, gym, retail space, or other building, shipping containers have genuine merit. Widely available and affordable, shipping containers are made of metal, so as they have substantial strength, the metal also creates incredible challenges.
Metal is a strong conductor of thermal energy, so insulation is crucial to a shipping container project. InSoFast insulation products provide a range of solutions for all conventional and unique designs to have stable interior temps.
The condensation that results from cooled metal exposed to the sun requires insulation. Picture the effects of a Koozie on a cold drink, and you’ll understand the helpful nature of insulation.
The noisy nature of a metal container will also be overcome with insulation. The clang of metal pots and pans should be all the information needed for you to understand the importance of insulation for a metal box turned home.
The Installation of InSoFast Shipping Container Insulation
Shipping container insulation from InSoFast, LLC, works with the container. It resists absorption of water, development of mold and mildew, and directs moisture away from the wall.
The panels include embedded polypropylene studs that create a built-in frame, saving time and space.
Shipping Container Insulation Products from InSoFast, LLC
For container walls, choose the InSoFast CX insulation panel. A building system made from these panels lines up straight onto the side walls of the unit and takes up a small amount of the limited space. The panels align against the ribs of the corrugation and follow a repeating pattern every 11-inches. By installing this system, you’ll gain a built-in frame, help with wiring, and drainage channels.
The InSerts we make for shipping containers come in three separate lines meant to use with the side walls, end walls, and ceilings. The Expanded Polystyrene foam sleeves fill up the empty spaces of the corrugation for a flat surface where you’ll apply a layer of either 2.0 Flat Panels or 2.5 Flat Panels from InSoFast’s catalog.
The CX-LP Low-Pro Embedded Stud provides an insulated stud that should be affixed to the ribs of the container. InSerts will slide into the empty spaces, and rigid foam boards of your choice will fill up the wall between the embedded studs.
Buying a kit for your shipping container is the best way to go if you’re keeping with the standard dimensions without much modification. We provide InSoFast kits for both the 20’ and 40’ shipping containers with 8’ or high cube 9’ ceilings. We’ll also design a customized kit for a unique design plan.
