With an open mind, a shipping container, and quality InSoFast insulation, you can ready a comfortable, durable dwelling or office space. When you buy insulation panels for your project in St. Petersburg, FL, the home will have stable temps, limited condensation, moisture protection, and included framing and wiring raceways.
Insulating Your Shipping Container Home
Making a shipping container livable requires more than adding electricity, plumbing, and windows. You’ll need quality insulation to prevent condensation and extremes of heat and cold. Steel conducts energy, so the source of your building’s strength also creates its greatest vulnerabilities. InSoFast insulation panels provide the level of protection you need to protect your home from vapor, water, and thermal leakage. With the heat and humidity of Florida’s climate, this element is of particular importance for creating a viable habitation out of a shipping container.
InSoFast insulation products provide powerful insulation systems with no breaks in coverage. The non-porous, closed-cell EPS foam has twice the insulating power as open-cell foam insulation and moisture control channels to mitigate the presence of vapor. A shipping container home treated with our insulation will be comfortable, dry, and affordably climate controlled.
The Excellence of InSoFast Insulation Design
Saving time and money without sacrificing quality is the hallmark of InSoFast insulation products. Without the costs of labor for installation and a speedy install process, our products facilitate your build. The following features will provide some illumination concerning additional benefits of the CX shipping container panel:
- Devised for side walls of containers
- Built-in embedded studs create framing
- 44”x24” panel is lightweight and stackable
- R-11 insulation strength (systems regularly outperform competing insulation with higher R-values)
- Continuous insulation systems
- Apply to any flat surface
- Built-in service channels facilitate wiring
- Chemically and physically stable
- Studs hold up to 250 pounds each
The CX 44 panel isn’t the only insulation option offered by InSoFast, LLC. We also provide InSerts for filling the recesses creating by corrugation; these lines specifically fit the ceiling, side walls, and end walls. This product creates a flat surface that should be covered by interior panels – the UX 2.0 or EXi 2.5 line. The result is airtight and strong.
If your purpose is storage or exterior insulation, consider the CX-LP LowPro Studs. They rest on the ridges and coordinate with InSerts and your choice of rigid foam board. This system is more affordable but does lack the moisture control channels and wiring raceways our other panels provide.
Tools required for your shipping container project are limited and commonplace. A utility knife, some sort of saw, a caulk gun loaded with Loctite PL Premium 3X Stronger Construction Adhesive, and canned spray foam insulation will prepare you for application.
