Shipping container renovations that create homes, offices, or other structures will include several processes including insulating, framing, wiring, plumbing, finishing, etc. Should you plan to buy InSoFast shipping container insulation panels, we’ll ship them directly from the factory to your project site in Cape Coral, FL. Our products are amenable to DIYers and make additional processes of construction easier and faster as well.
The InSoFast CX44 Panel – Designed with Shipping Containers in Mind
The CX44 panel’s design mirrors the corrugated design in its 11” repeating pattern. When installed horizontally, the embedded studs line up against the ribs of the corrugation for a straightforward install. Since the strong, polypropylene studs serve as a rot-resisting frame and the panel is only 2” thick, you gain more usable space within the container unit.
These panels also offer channels for running wiring to make the electrical setup easier and moisture control channels to mitigate any moisture that occurs. The closed-cell EPS foam of the panel is a strong insulating material, providing R-11 thermal protection. It’s also non-porous, preventing the crossover of vapor or moisture.
The InSoFast InSerts – To Achieve Full Protection from Untreated Air
InSoFast, LLC, produces InSerts meant for the side walls, end walls, and ceilings of containers. These products fill the empty spaces created by corrugation, leaving a smooth surface upon which either UX 2.0 or EXi 2.5 insulation panels should follow. With this system, you have no unheated or uncooled air behind the panel, and you still have electric raceways, moisture control channels, and a built-in framing system.
When choosing between the UX 2.0 or EXi 2.5 line of insulation panel, consider your climate and preferences. The UX 2.0 panel is R-8.5, but it regularly outperforms fiberglass batt insulation with a higher R-value. This base level insulation is appropriate for most purposes. If you need higher R-value insulation, consider the EXi 2.5 panel. It’s 20% stronger and ½” thicker with deeper recessed studs and tighter fitting tongue-and-groove notched edges.
The InSoFast CX-LP LowPro Embedded Studs – When No Services Are Required
The frugally minded builder of a shed or a structure that otherwise doesn’t require services should consider the CX-LP LowPro Embedded Stud. This product also requires the use of InSerts within the recessed portions of the corrugation. The studs rest on the ridged portions, and the rigid foam board of your choice rests in between the studs. This product costs less, but it does not offer drainage channels or pathways for running wiring.
