One outstanding feature of the Blow-in Insulation, which is produced from old newspapers, is that it provides optimal insulation during both the cold and the warm seasons, thus markedly reducing energy costs for heating in the winter and for air conditioning in the summer. Construction projects are regularly conducted in over 12 European countries using natural THERMOFLOC fibres, and the number of builder-owners who are convinced of the benefits of a THERMOFLOC insulation system is growing daily.

Thermofloc_ Blow- in Insulation B l o w - i n I n s u l a t i o n B l o w - i n I n s u l a t i o n THERMOFLOC is installed by means of specially equipped blowing machines. The insulation is thereby pumped into hoses under air pressure, transported further into the hollow spaces of the building components, and there compressed in accordance with the material handling instructions, to produce an uninterrupted, complete insulation layer. The special handling technique H a s c o n s i d e ra b l e a d va n t a g e s b o t h f o r t h e p e r son installing the insulation and the builder-owner. The builder-owner benefits through having an uninterrupted insulation layer that is free of thermal bridges. Old roofs can be insulated later without removing the roof tiles. Through the creation of an insulation layer that is open to diffusion, the builder-owner can enjoy an ecologically compatible, cosy atmosphere in his living area.

The compression ratio of the insulation thereby lies between 25 kg/m 3 and 65 kg/m 3, according to the area of application. There is practically no waste, as only the exact amount of insulation that is necessary for a particular construction is blown into the building component. Furthermore, it simplifies building site logistics, as the insulation materials in the building no longer have to be transported by hand. Thanks to the blow-in technique, all higher parts of the building (multi-storey buildings) can be filled with no problem.,this saves time and speeds up the execution of the project.

Thermofloc_ Floor Filling Floor Filliing F l o o r F i l l i n g Unlike the Blow-in Insulation, THERMOFLOC Floor Filling is processed by hand and used exclusively as a non- pressureresistant insulation at the horizontal level (ceiling on the top storey, between joists in a wood-joist floor construction). In order to ensure better manual processing, the insulation material is less compressed in the packaging. THERMOFLOC Floor Filling is available in 12 kg sacks, with 24 sacks per pallet. The insulation material is simply poured on evenly to achieve the desired insulation thickness and then spread to form a level surface. Material consumption is approx. 35 kg/m 3. The technical data is identical to that of the Blow-in Insulation. 10

Thermofloc_ Insulation Pellets Insulation Pellets I n s u l a t i o n P e l l e t s THERMOFLOC Insulation Pellets are granules made from cellulose fibres, which can be used for floor construction. The granules, which are 3-8 mm in size, are simply poured on to produce the desired installation height and afterwards spread to form a level surface. In this way, subfloor constructions with an installation height of 30-80 mm can be created. Due to the high piled weight (500 kg/m 3 ), THERMOFLOC Insulation Pellets are particularly suited for the construction of supporting insulation layers, resulting in outstanding noise insulation. No matter whether in a concrete ceiling or a wooden beam ceiling the insulation qualities of both types of construction can be markedly improved using THERMOFLOC Insulation Pellets. 12

The use of THERMOFLOC Vapour-Proof Lining prevents weak points in the construction due to draughts, thus preventing the penetration of moisture into the thermal insulation. Installation instructions: THERMOFLOC Vapour-Proof Lining is fastened to the substructures by means of tacking or gluing. The lining must be installed with the foil side facing inwards to the room, i.e. with the fibrous side facing the thermal insulation. A lengthwise installation of the Vapour-Proof Lining is to be recommended in the case of THERMOFLOC Blow-in Insulations. Should it be necessary to install it crosswise, the points where adhesive tape is used must be covered with continuous lathing in order to prevent THERMOFLOC Adhesive Tape from becoming detached due to the blowin pressure. The areas to be stuck down must be free of grease, dust and silicone, and also completely dry. 15
