HYBRIS
Actis Hybris is a new insulating material based on a honeycomb structure. It contains an aluminum coating on polyethylene foils and is comprised of highly reflective surfaces with low emissivity. Its unique structure provides excellent thermal performance and protection against overheating and moisture infiltration. Actis Hybris is available in thicknesses of 75mm to 140mm and features external film protection.
Actis insulators are available in both rolls and panels. The rolls are cut 5 to 10mm wider than the space between rafter and stud centres. They are then stapled to the studs and timbers with ACTIS adhesive tape. They also have to be adhered to adjacent panels if they are sagging or have residual air spaces. This insulation is suitable for use in cold climates, and it can also be used in areas of high humidity.
The Actis HYBRIS product is registered in the BM TRADA Q-Mark Scheme for Building Insulation Products. This product meets the requirements set out in EAT 040007-00-1201. Its R-values are 9.05 m2/W/m2 and 0.10 for the outer side. Its performance is accredited by the LABC (Local Authority for Buildings and Construction).
The Energy Performance Documents of Actis Hybris indicate a lower lifecycle primary energy consumption compared to rigid board insulation. The insulating breather membranes and vapour control layer are verified by the INIES, which hosts an easy-to-use database of environmental data. It is a member of the ECO platform which aims to make verified EPDs available freely at European level. The EPDs are also available to the public.
ACTIS Boost R
In order to increase the thermal performance of your roof, you should consider the Actis Boost R Hybrid, a product of the new Actis multifoil range. This product is highly effective because it provides dual functionality within a single product. Its built-in breathable membrane eliminates the need for a separate breather membrane. This product is also cost-competitive, has LABC registered details, and is approved for the Premier Guarantee.
ACTIS Boost’R insulation offers dual benefits: it provides superior thermal insulation and reduces thickness without compromising air quality. Installing this product is easy and requires fewer steps than other insulation products. Actis Boost’R insulation is suitable for all wind zones and works well with any type of existing insulation. Its versatility makes it an excellent choice for homeowners, architects, and contractors. And with its versatility, Actis multifoil offers an affordable solution for achieving the U-values that you require for your building.

It is also available in a variety of different roll sizes and is categorized as a commercial profile. ACTIS is a trusted name in the insulation business, and their products are made to ensure maximum comfort for home and building owners. In addition to offering a wide variety of products, Actis also follows stringent manufacturing standards to ensure the quality of their products.
ACTIS H Control
The Actis H Control Hybrid Insulation is a hybrid multi foil insulation with an all-in-one vapour control layer that can significantly reduce installation steps while still maintaining the same ‘U’ Value. The roll is 1.6 m x 6.25 m and has a 10 m2 surface area. It can be used for all types of insulation and is available in rolls of 10m2.
The Actis HControl Hybrid is a thin multi-foil insulation that combines insulation, air tightness, moisture resistance, and reflective properties. The product is highly durable and does not create thermal bridging. It is ideal for applications where multiple layers of insulation are required. Because Actis HControl Hybrid insulation is lightweight, it can be used for both interior and exterior applications. This insulation can also be used in masonry and timber frame walls, as well as on suspended timber floors.
Actis Hybrid Insulation is available in rolls of 10m2 and 45mm thick. Its dual assessment system ensures lasting results. Actis tests its products under real-world conditions to ensure they will last a long time. As a result, its products have a guaranteed level of complete airtightness. A 20 mm air gap is required on each side to ensure a proper airtight seal.
The Actis HControl Hybrid insulation meets the EN 16012 standard for thermal resistance. Its core R-value is 1.90 m2/K/W with a 0.06 external emissivity. Its water tightness rating is Class W1. The Actis Hcontrol Hybrid insulation is a hybrid insulating product that combines high-quality thermal insulation and water tightness. In addition to its thermal properties, Actis Hcontrol Hybrid meets stringent criteria for water vapour transmission.
ACTIS Hybris
Listed within the BM TRADA Q-Mark Scheme for Building Insulation Products, Actis Hybris has a proven track record. These products offer a range of benefits and are CE-marked. They are also LABC-registered and NHBC warranty-approved. In addition to this, the range is increasingly popular with off-site manufacturers. Actis Hybris offers a wide range of thicknesses and R values.
The honeycomb-style insulation offered by Actis has been named a finalist in the Structural Timber Association awards, making it a prime contender for the Product Innovation Award. More than 500 construction professionals are expected to attend the event, where Actis Hybris will be presented with one of 17 awards. The association’s annual awards honour the industry’s high-performance products and recognize the outstanding contributions of architects, builders, and social housing providers. Actis Hybris insulation is available in a variety of styles and colors to fit any aesthetic or budget.
The study examined all different thicknesses of honeycomb style insulation, including the raw material extraction, production, packaging, transport, installation, and end-of-life disposal. It also measured energy resources, global warming potential (kg CO2), water consumption, air pollution, and more. The data were then compared to other insulation products. Actis Hybris was found to be less than two-fifths as energy-efficient as compared to PU board.
Actis Hybris insulation is based on the honeycomb structure and is a good choice for pitched roofs, ceilings, timber frame walls, and suspended timber floors. Actis Hybris is easy to install and provides excellent thermal performance. Actis HControl Hybrid is another option that provides dual action vapour control. Available in 50mm – 205mm, Actis Hybris offers a range of thicknesses to suit any project.
