Insulated cladding system

31 March 2017

Thermohall fabric from Rubb, a leading supplier of complete insulated fabric buildings, can be used to clad many Rubb structure types, from small standard shelters up to large scale multi-span aircraft hangars. The fabric provides many benefits to help promote energy efficiency.

Thermohall cladding consists of a durable external PVC layer and a self cleaning internal PVC layer, which encapsulate a series of air tight PVC ‘pockets’, each featuring a non-combustible glass wool insulation core. The insulated panel system provides a full vapour seal, which minimises thermal bridging and reduces infiltration losses. This reduces condensation on framing members, improving insulation efficiency.

The cladding is highly resistant to tearing, stretching and movement under load – even in very harsh weather conditions. It is securely fastened to the outside of a galvanized steel support structure and virtually eliminates thermal bridging and air infiltration. These features, together with our use of special high density insulation, mean that Thermohall structures typically out performs other systems that have higher insulation thickness but lower overall effective thermal resistance.
