The end result is a controlled environment,
delivering optimal energy savings for all Industrial, Commercial, Agricultural and Residential sectors.
Our highly trained technicians work in–situ,
resulting in a quick return to service that vastly reduces downtime, disruption and operational expenditure. Our insulation products also act to extend the serviceable life of buildings at a fraction of the current lifecycle running cost.
In addition our foam and / or polyurea sprays can be used to encapsulate asbestos fibres in all existing structures.
Ancore provides a turnkey insulation service, from agreeing initial principles through to the completion of the agreed project.
The company’s management team brings an almost thirty year track record of success and innovation in this field. In addition, Ancore technicians are uniquely trained to carry out specified projects in the most efficient way possible.
Product Options
Ancore offers both Open cell and Closed cell spray foam solutions.The benefits of a spray foam, as opposed to other types of insulation, include quick application, dexterity in hard to reach spots, air–tightness and generally robust resistance to diverse environmental conditions.
Open–cell
spray foam technology (Lapolla FoamLok) is a cost–effective solution to improve the energy efficiency of a building. The breathable material expands 100 times its initial volume and fills cavities of any shape providing a continuous, protective air barrier that helps to minimize air leakage and air intrusion.
Application Uses:
· Roof – Directly to underside of breathable membrane (as long as counter batten is installed),
· Roof – Directly to underside of ridged insulation board that is installed on top of rafters in a warm roof construction,
· Roof – Directly to rafter slides installed between rafters maintaining regulation 50mm air gap when single batten roofs are used to comply with Building Regulations and BS5250:2011 Code for Condensation.
· Roof – Directly to bitumen felt (non breathable membrane)
· Roof – Directly onto the floor in attic,
· Walls – Timber frame walls between studs,
·
Walls – Internal surface of exterior masonry walls used along with dry lining system
·
Floors – Underside of suspended and ventilated timber ground floors.
Closed–cell
spray and injection foam insulation solutions (BASF Walltite CL100 & CV100) are particularly efficient.
Because of their greater density and adhesion characteristics they provide structural stability, fire and moisture resistance in wall and roof assemblies.
Application Uses:
· Roof – Directly to the underside of exposed slates to stabilise and insulate,
· Roof – Directly to underside of breathable membrane (as long as counter batten is installed),
· Roof – Directly to rafter slides installed between rafters maintaining regulation 50mm air gap when single batten roofs are used,
· Roof – on the flat ceiling in attic,
· Walls – Timber frame walls between studs,
· Walls – inside surface of masonry walls used along with dry lining system (metal or timber system),
· Floor – Concrete ground floors underneath screed,
·
Floor – Underside of concrete slabs / soffit, and
·
Cavity Wall – Pour Injected rigid foam between block cavity wall to stabilise and insulate.
The Ancore team will advise on when open cell or close cell is the most relevant insulation option for a specific project.
Recent surveys have confirmed that the total installation costs associated with spray foam, compared with pre–prepared rigid boards or wool, are about the same. However, spray foam delivers a far better result with Air–tightness, Lifetime Energy Savings installed in Less time and with Less mess. Specifically, the spraying process ensures that an entire structure is completely Air–sealed in a fraction of the time compared to using other insulatation options.
