Energy Efficient Insulation Tape.
The Future is Here
Window Insulation Tape
Window insulation tape: we have trusted Iso-Chemie Windows insulation tapes for years. Initially, we used ISO-BLOCO WIN2WALL, a multi-functional tape tailored for the UK market. This tape enhanced the installation of A, A+, and A++ energy-rated windows, often providing a better U-value at the joint between the window and wall than the window itself. Weather-tested to 600 Pa, it expanded from 2mm to 8mm, offering benefits for both installers and homeowners.
ISO-BLOCO-ONE: The Upgrade
ISO-BLOCO-ONE replaced WIN2WALL, offering improved insulation properties and easier on-site installation. Expanding to fill gaps from 2mm to 12mm and weather-tested to 750 Pa, it became our standard insulation tape for brick-to-brick openings.
Advanced Technology: Multi-Functional Joint Insulation Tape
The ISO-BLOCO HYBRATEC Window insulation tape takes insulation to the next level. It ensures airtightness and prevents heat loss through convection, offering superior thermal and acoustic insulation. Weather-tested to 1,050 Pa, this tape outperforms standard requirements, adapting to the challenges of climate change. Its 100% waterproof design eliminates drafts and water ingress, expanding and contracting with seasonal changes. This tape is ideal for modern homes, adhering to the “inside tighter than outside” principle, providing maximum thermal protection.
New Window U-Values
Since June 15, 2022, all windows and doors must have a minimum U-value of 1.4 W/m²K. This key metric measures energy efficiency. A double-glazed window with a U-value of 1.4 means 1.4 watts will transfer per square meter for every degree of temperature difference between the inside and outside. Understanding this requirement is essential for ensuring energy efficiency in your home.
Tackling Draughty Windows
Heat often escapes through the expansion gap around the window frame, leading to drafts. Traditional methods like expanding foam and silicone sealing do not create long-lasting thermal or acoustic barriers. This results in heat loss and reduced soundproofing, which can significantly lower the window’s overall U-value. High-performance windows lose their effectiveness if paired with inefficient sealing methods.
ISO-BLOCO HYBRATEC: The Window Insulation Tape Solution
ISO-BLOCO HYBRATEC Window insulation tape is a game-changer. This tape seals windows and doors precisely, enhancing energy savings and soundproofing. Its 64mm width fits a 70mm frame, expanding from 3mm to 14mm. This tape is ideal for use with Pilkington Optiphon™ Glass Units for superior soundproofing. By integrating multiple barrier layers, this tape is also a Passive House-approved component.
ISO-BLOCO HYBRATEC tape is applied to the front of the frame edge before installation, expanding to fill gaps and sealing the perimeter between the brickwork and frame. This 100% airtight seal prevents heat loss and improves energy efficiency. The tape offers UV stability for ten years and a life expectancy of 40 years, eliminating the need for silicone, foam, or trims.
Versatility and Durability
ISO-BLOCO HYBRATEC Window insulation tape suits various applications, including Casement Windows, Tilt N Turns, Bi-Folding Doors, Patio Doors, and French Doors. It can be installed in any weather and offers a 3-in-1 multi-function solution with thermal, acoustic, and airtight properties. The tape withstands driving rain at 1,050 Pa, reduces sound by up to 56dB, and provides a U-value of 0.55 in a 10mm joint, making it ideal for energy-efficient homes.
Ideal for Building Regulations
ISO-BLOCO HYBRATEC insulation tape meets Approved Document C for weather-tightness and moisture resistance, ensuring your home is energy-efficient and draft-free. This tape significantly improves living conditions, reduces energy bills, and offers long-term performance with minimal maintenance. Available in various sizes, this tape is impervious to extreme temperatures and far superior to other tapes on the market.
Intelligent Sealing Functions
This tape operates on four principles: external weather resistance, middle thermal and acoustic insulation, and internal air tightness. It adapts to structural movement, prevents wind, dust, and moisture ingress, and complies with energy-saving regulations.
