About PENOPLEX / Insulation of floors / Insulating floors, refrigerator warehouses, and ice rinks In order to prevent foundation soil from freezing, refrigerator warehouses, especially freezers, require additional floor insulation. PENOPLEX® boards preserve their insulating properties even when exposed to low temperatures and heavy load for a long time. At a distributed load of over 10 t/?², deformation of PENOPLEX® boards is less than 2 percent of their initial thickness.
Laying PENOPLEX® boards We recommend staggering PENOPLEX® boards in two layers so that the top boards overlap the seams between the sheet of the bottom layer. This creates a continuous layer of thermal insulation without cold conducting bridges. In this case, the vapor insulating layer should be laid under the the thermal insulation, doubling as a hydroinsulation layer. You will need another layer of a thin polyethylene film or similar material between the insulation layer and the slab of reinforced concrete that is used to distribute the load evenly. When constructing floors in refrigerator warehouses, dimensions of your structure and specifications of temperature seams must comply with the requirements for floors sustaining heavy loads. A similar technique is used for the insulation of floors in ice rinks, except that the flexible pipes with chilled fluid are embedded in the top, ice-bearing concrete slab.
