Timber Cassettes/Warmcell Insulation

At McVeigh Insulations our Structural Timber Cassettes are now available with an insulating core of recycled newspaper. The Warmcel 500 insulation is blown through a nozzle that is similar in appearance to those used on Grand Prix refuelling rigs.

The nozzle is docked with the panel by means of pre-drilled access holes, through which the Warmcel 500 is injected. The TurboFill system manages the even distribution of Warmcel 500 throughout the panel void. An ingenious pressure sensing system ensures the void is completely filled to the correct density for optimum performance and to avoid settlement.

We have recently manufactured over 1500m2 of roof cassettes using this technique, and with each cassette measuring up to 7m long x 2.4m wide the installation period on site is minimised.
