A new and easy way to introduce polystyrene material into the building structure and raise the thermal insulation (has a thermal conductivity of less than 0.040W/(m× K): JIS A 9511).
Polystyrene foam is very strong and has a bending strength of 20N/cm2, as a result of this it is also suitable to use as base material below the finishing product.
The installation of TH-370 is so much easier than that of other materials, there is no need to worry about beams, joists or other materials that will slow down the installation, just add adhesives and you are ready to go.
Since it contains several different materials it is very uncommon on the market and you would have to go through a lot of trouble combining all the components one by one.
With a size of 910mm×910mm and a weight of just 5kg it is very easy to handle and install.
Construction method |
Method of installation | Amount of time needed | Thermal insulation effect | Arrangements | ||||
TH-370 | Add adhesives and then place TH-370 on it. |
Short | Very high | Easy | ||||
Joist framing |
Fasten the joists to the subfloor using glue and cover with a plywood board |
Relatively short | Additional insulation is required |
Somewhat complicated | ||||
Beam construction | Fasten the beam with adhesives, use preserving material and then a plywood board on top. |
Long | Additional insulation is required |
Complicated | ||||
Double floor construction | Use adhesives by the pillars, cover with plywood and level the floor so it is straight. |
Quite long | Additional insulation is required | Complicated | ||||
