Continuous insulation on the exterior of the building is demonstrably superior to lofted insulation between framing. This traditional method results in a lower insulation value for the wall than the R-value of the insulation being used, due to thermal bridging and often questionable installation methods.

IKO Enertherm ALU is installed over the building wrap or RAB board, depending on the requirements of the build and as directed by the NZBC. The IKO Enertherm ALU boards come in a range of sizes and thicknesses, with the added benefit of providing a Tongue and Groove board option. This ensures that the joints between the boards have increased performance, and made in sizes that are simple to handle and install.

The dimensional stability of the boards guarantees one unbroken insulation shield. The outstanding thermal performance of IKO Enertherm means that one thin layer of insulation board in the cavity is enough, depending on the construction of the building.

The lightweight board facilitates transport and installation. The ALU board coating is corrosion-resistant. Outright Continuous Insulation has a complete range of accessories to enable fixing and sealing.
