Are Turvac Vacuum Insulation products environmentally friendly?
Sustainability is about more than thermal performance alone.
High-performance insulation can help reduce energy consumption throughout the lifetime of a building, contributing to lower operational costs and reduced CO₂ emissions. At the same time, material efficiency plays an important role. By delivering exceptional thermal performance in a slim profile, Vacuum Insulation Panels help achieve demanding insulation targets while using less space and fewer resources.
In addition, up to 90% of a Turvac VIP can be reused, supporting a more circular approach to construction and renovation projects.
Can Vacuum Insulation Panels be cut or modified on site?
No. Standard VIPs must not be cut, drilled or punctured, as damaging the barrier envelope causes the panel to lose its vacuum and significantly reduces its insulation performance.
Need support with panel dimensions and layout?
Can Vacuum Insulation Panels be manufactured in custom sizes?
Yes. VIPs can be manufactured in project-specific dimensions, allowing the insulation layout to be optimized for the available space and helping to minimize gaps and thermal bridges.
Need custom panel dimensions?
How do Vacuum Insulation Panels compare with traditional insulation materials?
VIPs provide significantly higher thermal performance than conventional insulation materials at the same thickness. They are particularly valuable where installation space is limited or very high insulation performance is required.
Want to explore the technical performance?
How much thinner can insulation be when using VIPs?
Depending on the materials being compared, VIPs can achieve similar thermal performance with substantially less insulation thickness. This makes them an ideal solution when every millimetre of available space matters.
Need help determining the right thickness?
What information is needed to select the right VIP for my project?
Key information includes the required thermal performance, available installation space, application, dimensions, operating temperature, environmental conditions and any specific fire or mechanical requirements.
Not sure which VIP solution you need?
What is a Vacuum Insulation Panel (VIP) and how does it work?
A Vacuum Insulation Panel (VIP) is a high-performance insulation solution consisting of a porous core enclosed in a gas-tight barrier and evacuated to create a vacuum. By removing the air inside the panel, heat transfer is significantly reduced, delivering excellent thermal performance with minimal insulation thickness.
Not sure if VIP is right for your application?
What sizes and thicknesses are available?
VIPs are available in a range of dimensions and thicknesses to meet different thermal and installation requirements. The optimal configuration depends on the available space, required insulation performance and application design.
