va-Q-vip B

Characteristics

va-Q-vip B is a vacuum insulation panel for construction applications. va-Q-vip B is coverd with a high barrier film and an additional black glass fiber textile for mechanical shock protection. The core itself is non-combustible (Fire class A1). The va-Q-vip B with black glass fabric is inflammable (Construction materials class DIN 4102-B2).

The va-Q-vip B is approved for general construction purposes in accordance with the approval number Z-23.11-1658, of the “Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik (DIBT)”. By 29th June 2011 the validity of the approval was extended until 30th June 2015.

va-Q-vip B elements stand out because of their smooth edges and corners due to special "edge fold technique va-Q-seam" individual elements can therefore be joined almost seamlessly.

Applications

va-Q-vip B can be used in buildings in accordance with application areas interior applications for ceilings, walls, floors, flat roofs, top floor ceilings, exterior insulation behind paneling, insulation in wood frame construction to the standard DIN 4108-10, Table 1.

Planners, installation partners or architects are responsible for the relevant specific insulation system. Application systems for buildings can also be discussed directly with va-Q-tec.

Advantage

Official approval for building material with assigned thermal conductivity 0.007 W/mK
Significantly reduced heat flows and thickness
Saves space providing more larger usable room area
Extra protective layer for reliable installation
