The Heightened Need for Shipping Container Insulation
Every home needs insulation to create a comfortable environment, but steel shipping containers pose particular problems that can be resolved with insulation. Understanding the problems and their causes is important to adequately insulating your shipping container project.
Those familiar with the noisy clang metal makes when banged will understand the amplification that would happen inside an uninsulated shipping container. The reverberations and echoes would be intolerable, and InSoFast insulation panels can resolve this problem.
A steel shipping container is a structure that exaggerates temperatures. The sun’s rays will send heat directly into the shipping container, and when it goes down, the inside will become chilly quickly. The steel will also allow for unobstructed loss of thermal energy.
Moisture within any structure is destructive. In steel structures, the consequences include corrosion and destruction of the metal as well as mold and mildew in traditional insulation. The moisture in an uninsulated container is made worse by the condensation that occurs when the internal and external temperatures conflict.
To effectively overcome these problems, choose InSoFast shipping container insulation panels. They’re composed of EPS, Expanded Polystyrene foam, which is a closed-cell, injection-molded insulation product.
This product is stronger and more supportive than open-cell, non-porous foam. Water and vapor won’t pass through the material, establishing twice the insulating strength per inch.
Additionally, these panels won’t breakdown or release chemicals like CFCs or HCFCs. The product’s physical and chemical stability provide lasting insulation unlike traditional fiberglass insulation that settles and lessens its effectiveness.
InSoFast Insulation Products Especially for Shipping Containers
InSoFast CX 2.0 Container Panels fit perfectly against the walls of shipping containers. Protect the interior space within the shipping container by using the thin, two-inch thick panel. The system will follow an 11-inch repeating pattern along the ribbed corrugation. InSoFast shipping container insulation panel is 44×24 inches with vertically aligned studs and will affix directly with a bit of construction adhesive.
Alternatively, use InSoFast InSerts to fill the spaces created by the shipping container’s corrugation with Expanded Polystyrene foam. The flush surface resulting from their application will then receive the treatment of InSoFast interior panels – either UX 2.0 or EXi 2.5. Since this method fills all the empty spaces, the continuous insulation will be fully enhanced and airtight.
The transformation of metal shipping containers into homes, offices, classrooms, or other structures are able to be cooled, heated, quieted, and dried.
