Shipping Container Conversions: Problems and Solutions
Creating houses, offices, and classrooms from shipping containers is a growing trend. These projects can range from small to large and have a diverse range of functions as well. Imagination is the limit when it comes to building uses for shipping containers.
The major problem faced with this construction relates to insulation. Without a quality insulation plan, the structure will face corrosion due to condensation, and the interior will be unlivable because of the temperature instability. The metal is such a powerful conductor that keeping the home comfortable would be impossible and condensation would form regularly. InSoFast insulation panels resolve both of these problems.
High density, closed cell Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) foam insulation panels from InSoFast will be the best solution. They prevent the flow of vapor and air with double the insulating strength per inch. The construction of the panels and the system the panels create provides insulation that outperforms the competition dramatically.
InSoFast Products for Shipping Containers
The shipping container insulation products manufactured by InSoFast work to stabilize temperatures and promote dry interiors.
The CX container panel is 2” thick and follows an 11-inch repeating pattern to make sure that the studs line up perfectly against the container’s ridges. It offers an R-value of 11.
The other process offered by InSoFast includes special designed sleeves of insulation foam that fills up the recessed places of the corrugated walls. Using PL Premium 3X Stronger Construction Adhesive, the foam will go up in no time at all. Once this step is done, a layer of InSoFast interior insulation will follow.
Whether you choose the CX panel or the InSert and interior panel combo, InSoFast insulation products will provide a few standard features. They include the following:
