Description
Improved Energy Efficiency: By reducing heat loss through cold bridging, the design of these Thermal Shims significantly enhances the overall energy efficiency of buildings. This results in reduced energy consumption and lower utility costs for building owners.
Versatility: While the thermal shims are commonly used for Masonry Support systems, the development of a smaller shim for the 3000 range Frame Cramp extends energy efficiency benefits to a broader range of applications. This versatility allows for consistent energy-saving measures across different construction components.
High-Quality Construction: Manufactured from a 3mm thick fibre-reinforced composite, the shims exhibit exceptional durability and reliability. This ensures long-term effectiveness in reducing heat loss and maintaining energy efficiency throughout the lifespan of the building.
Low Thermal Conductivity: With a thermal conductivity of less than 0.3W/m.K, the shims provide efficient insulation, minimizing thermal bridging and heat transfer. This contributes to maintaining a comfortable indoor environment and reducing reliance on heating and cooling systems.
Corrosion Prevention: In addition to aiding efficiency, the shims act as isolators to eliminate bi-metallic corrosion. This ensures the integrity of building components and prolongs their lifespan, resulting in lower maintenance costs over time.
Overall, these Thermal Shims offer a comprehensive range of benefits, from enhancing energy efficiency and versatility to providing high-quality construction and corrosion prevention. These features make them an indispensable component in sustainable building practices and contribute to creating healthier, more comfortable, and cost-effective indoor environments.
