Are you contemplating a conversion of a 20 ft. shipping container? If so, insulation will be a key factor of the project. InSoFast insulation products are far superior to alternative insulation methods for container projects. They provide temperature stability, moisture remediation, and easy installation along with built-in features that also make wiring and hanging drywall easier.
InSoFast insulation products, composed of closed-cell EPS foam, are non-porous. Moisture can quickly destroy a shipping container, and the metal composition of the container unfortunately encourages condensation formation. Quality insulation prevents this moisture, and InSoFast insulation also contains moisture control channels to further enhance the protection from moisture damage. A wall system of insulation constructed with InSoFast panels will keep air, vapor, and moisture from bleeding through.
Constructing a wall system of InSoFast insulation is easy and fast. The panels have notches along the edges to make sure that alignment is secure and apparent. As the system grows, it will increase in strength and sturdiness. The process won’t require taping or concern about remaining true and straight.
Expertise and special tools are also unnecessary for InSoFast insulation installation. Watch a few of the videos on our website, order a supply sufficient for your container, and gather a utility knife, saw, caulking gun, construction adhesive, and canned spray foam insulation to be locked and loaded for your installation of shipping container insulation.
What Makes InSoFast Insulation Panels Special?
Our insulation panels aren’t simply panels of foam. They include embedded non-ferrous studs every 16” on center. These studs serve as the area for adhesion where construction adhesive will hold the panels on the wall. Additionally, the panels include indicator lines to make hanging drywall simple. The strong studs are able to uphold heavy loads, including shelving, cabinetry, flatscreens, and other mounted accessories.
Installing the circuitry within your container will also be simple with InSoFast insulation panels. The built-in electric raceways follow both a sideways and lengthwise pattern, and the foam is easily modified with a utility knife to hold outlet boxes.
The hazards of moisture to your shipping container range from an uncomfortable, humid interior to corrosion and rust of the metal. Our panels include drainage channels to further the mitigation of moisture begun by the non-porous foam.
Ordering is simple. We offer kits of InSoFast shipping container insulation for standard sized units as well as customized options. Our patented and patent-pending shipping container insulation products are shipped without surcharge to destinations within the Lower 48 from our facilities in Idaho, Massachusetts, South Dakota, or Minnesota.
InSoFast Insulation Product Lines for Shipping Containers
The InSoFast CX Shipping Container panel rests up against the side walls of shipping containers perfectly. Following an 11” repeating pattern, these panels go in quickly and provide special features that make your conversion easier than it otherwise would be. Furthermore, the panels are a thin, 2” thick, so more space is left for furniture and movement.
Alternatively, InSoFast InSerts, sleeves of EPS foam, fill the recesses of corrugation and create an airtight, flat surface upon which you’ll need to complete with an added layer of InSoFast interior panels.
When your plans don’t include running services, you can choose InSoFast CX-LP LowPro Embedded Studs. With the insulation protection of EPS foam and your choice of rigid foam board, this system is cheaper and less bulky to ship but includes the frame and protection from thermal bridging our products provide.
