Products

  • Crown FactoryClad Roll is a flexible, lightweight, non-combustible, resilient glass mineral wool quilt. It is manufactured in long lengths and has an exceptionally high tear strength, making it particularly suitable for use in the walls of profile metal clad buildings.
  • Knauf Breatheline is a breathable membrane with a polypropylene non-woven coating on both sides.

 

Typical Construction

Insulation quilt is located between outer metal cladding sheets and inner lining sheets, which are fixed on top of the supporting purlins. The inner and outer metal cladding sheets are separated by spacers. These usually take the form of rail and bracket systems or preformed insulated spacer systems.

To maintain continuity of the insulation where rail and bracket systems are used, the insulation is tucked under the rails, with all quilt edges tightly butted. With preformed insulated spacers, the insulation is butted up against the spacers. There is no continuous airspace in the construction other than that created by the cladding profile.
