Spaceloft®
FLEXIBLE HIGH PERFORMANCE INSULATION
FOR BUILDING ENVELOPES & EQUIPMENT

Spaceloft is a flexible, nanoporous aerogel blanket insulation designed to meet


the demanding energy conservation requirements of residential and commercial
building applications.
Spaceloft’s unique properties—extremely low thermal conductivity, superior
flexibility, hydrophobicity, and ease of use—make it essential for those seeking the
ultimate in thermal protection.
Using patented technology, Spaceloft insulation combines a silica aerogel with
reinforcing fibre to deliver industry-leading thermal performance in an easy-to-
handle and environmentally friendly product. Spaceloft products are proven,
effective insulators, a range of primary new build and retrofit applications
including;

Internal Wall External Wall Floor

Terrace Balcony Roof

Thermal Bridging Services Equipment

Characteristics
Spaceloft® can be cut using conventional cutting tools including scissors, tin
snips, and razor knives. It is recommended gloves, safety glasses, and dust
Advantages mask be worn when handling material. Additional processing guidelines
can be found in the Spaceloft Applications Guide. Refer to the Article
Superior Thermal Performance
Information Sheet (AIS) for additional health and safety information.
Up to five times better thermal performance than competing insulation products,
ideal for low energy, passive or zero-energy buildings.

Reduced Thickness and Profile Product Properties and Sustainability


Equal thermal resistance at a fraction of the thickness, releases space for building
occupiers and increases investment returns for owners / investors.
