Insulation
About Insulation
Carlisle manufactures an extensive variety of commercial insulation products that provide increased thermal performance and energy efficiency, including polyisocyanurate (polyiso) insulation and block-molded expanded polystyrene (EPS). These products can be used across the entire building envelope – from the foundation to the roof, and everywhere in between.
Energy and Carbon Emissions Savings Benefits of Roof Replacements
Low-sloped roofs comprise the largest thermal envelope surface of most non-residential buildings, which creates an opportunity to cost-effectively improve building energy performance during roof replacement projects. Where an existing roof contains insulation entirely above the deck and requires replacement, model energy codes and standards require that the replacement roof system comply with minimum thermal envelope insulation levels. For buildings constructed prior to the widespread adoption of energy codes, energy-code compliant roof replacements can significantly decrease whole-building energy use and reduce associated costs and carbon emissions.
