Ventilated and insulated concrete floor IsolCupolex Plus

ISOLCUPOLEX PLUS is a patented system to create insulated and aerated concrete floors. The elements of the system, made of insulation material work as a formwork for the concrete to create a raised floor insulation. It is ideal when insulation is required and when there is a high potential for humidity or gas to come from the ground, as well as when the pavement layer has to be raised or backfilled.
The system is made of a 100% recycled plastic dome, that protects from the raising of humidity, and an insulation layer in EPS with a specific geometry and high level of insulation. ISOLCUPOLEX PLUS’s primary advantage is to have the insulation and aeration in one step and also to have the insulation layer on the outside of the cast-in-place concrete structure. In this way the concrete can work as a thermal flywheel providing an optimal average radiant temperature all year round.

ISOLCUPOLEX PLUS is adaptable to any project layout, moreover, the thickness of the insulation layer can be tailored in order to comply to any thermal insulation requirement.
The concrete slab geometry created with this system distributes all the loads from the top of the slab to the sub-base without loading and deforming the insulation layer. Moreover, there is no need to create a second reinforced slab, as in the case of a more traditional raised floor insulation, which saves significantly in time and money.

By installing the insulation and aeration in one step ISOLCUPOLEX PLUS saves time and money and gives the project value.
