The CX44 shipping container insulation panels made by InSoFast, LLC are just one of a few insulation products you can choose to simplify insulation installation while maximizing its effect. Whether you’re a DIYer or a professional in the field, choose our products to install continuous insulation that will last the lifetime of your building.
Creative Reclaiming of Shipping Containers
Abandoned shipping containers are abundant and affordable. Reclaiming them and upcycling them into a functional structure is an environmentally friendly and budget appropriate way to design an array of structures ranging from a home to an office, restaurant, lake house, or other useful building.
The limitations involved with using these containers are primarily related to the metal composition, so quality insulation is key to a successful build. The corrugated design and limited space make traditional fiberglass insulation unwise choices, though. It won’t do much to limit condensation and will soon be worthless and lead to mold, mildew, and corrosion. Further, it will require the use of a wooden frame that will take up more of the limited space.
The InSoFast Insulation Solution
InSoFast insulation panels offer an effective and convenient solution for these issues.
Our products are closed-cell EPS foam that is injection-molded to suit the design of most shipping containers. The non-porous panel has numerous features that appeal to professionals as well as project enthusiasts.
The CX44 panel for shipping containers should be installed horizontally along the side walls of containers in a repeating running bond pattern. Several highlights of this product includes the following:
- Built-in non-ferrous studs that create a frame
- R-value of 11
- Mitigate moisture via non-porosity and drainage channels
- Convenient application
- Continuous insulation in a wall system of insulated panels
- Built-in channels for running services
The InSert line of shipping container insulation fills the recessed portions of the corrugated Side Walls, End Walls, and Ceiling. These sleeves of Expanded Polystyrene foam are glued in place to create a flat, airtight surface against the container. To complete the system, a wall of continuous insulation will be installed. You can choose either UX 2.0 or EXi 2.5 panels, depending on your insulation needs.
The final shipping container product from InSoFast, LLC is the CX-LP Low-Pro Embedded stud. These insulation embedded studs offer the rot-resistant framing that prevents thermal bridges. Application should be paired with InSerts and any rigid foam board. It is critical for those who choose this product to know that the product doesn’t include the panel portion or the built-in raceways or drainage channels that are generally included.
The Perks of Choosing InSoFast Insulation
InSoFast insulation panels mean what they say. They are a fast solution that works well and lasts.
The straightforward nature of the panels make installation a breeze. The notched edges align, a bit of construction adhesive applied to the embedded studs affixes them to the wall, and so on. The system gets stronger as it grows, and the only other items needed are a saw and utility knife for resizing and canned spray foam to seal up any edges and small gaps in coverage.
