Vacuum Insulation Panels
Vacuum Insulation Panels
For decades, building insulation has relied primarily on established materials such as mineral wool, expanded polystyrene (EPS), and extruded polystyrene (XPS). These solutions have proven effective in terms of cost, installation, and long-term performance, making them standard choices across the construction industry.
However, as building energy regulations continue to become more demanding worldwide, architects and engineers are facing a new challenge:
How can thermal performance be improved without significantly increasing wall thickness?
Whether driven by stricter U-value requirements, low-energy building standards, or net-zero carbon targets, modern construction projects increasingly require higher insulation performance within limited space.
In new buildings, thicker wall assemblies can result in:
Reduced usable floor area
More complex façade and curtain wall designs
Higher material and installation costs
Greater structural considerations
For building retrofit projects, the challenge is even greater, as existing wall systems often provide little room for additional insulation thickness.
As a result, the traditional approach of simply adding more insulation is gradually reaching practical limits.
