Whitstable based installer, Passivlux, has specified Iso-Chemie’s advanced window sealing tapes to provide improved levels of acoustic, thermal and energy insulation across all sectors of the commercial and residential construction industry in Kent.

Iso Chemie’s sealant tapes are designed to provide long-term protection against wind-blown rain ingress as well as an effective acoustic and thermal seal.

According to Iso Chemie, the use of ‘smart’ foams can create a measurable U-Value as low as 0.6w/m²k, offer superb thermal insulation and can contribute to acoustic sound reduction by 63dB. The installation tapes are said to be completely weather tight against driving rain up to hurricane force wind speeds, so installers can quickly apply them around the frame during initial fitting. This, adds Iso Chemie, provides the assurance that they have completed a comprehensive ‘A’ rated installation rather than just supplying an ‘A’ rated window.

Furthermore, Bloco One enables specifiers and installers to seal windows from inside the building and avoid the need to use time consuming and costly scaffolding and ladders among other external access systems.

Tom Holmes, business development manager at Passivlux, which is investing in a new Brighton branch this year to extend its range of windows and doors to a wider region, said: “Iso-Chemie tapes and sealants are specified to complement the window and doors high standards of quality and energy saving attributes. We ensure the products we use during our installations meet our stringent in-house testing procedure and offer our clients value for money without sacrificing quality or performance’.
