ACTIS is a French manufacturer of cellular reflective insulation. The company was founded in 1980, employing 200 people in three factories that are ISO 9001 certified. The company has been developing reflective insulation for over 35 years and its materials are healthy, non-irritant, and respectful of indoor air quality. Its innovative design is easy to implement and offers a range of features that make it a great choice for high-performance cellular insulation.
HYBRIS
The HYBRIS actis insulation offers significant environmental benefits. Based on its Energy Performance Document (EPD) it has a lower lifecycle primary energy consumption than rigid board insulation. It is a cornerstone of Actis’s range, with insulating breather membranes and a vapour control layer. The insulation has also been certified by the INIES, a European institute for environmental studies. This body maintains an easy-to-use database of environmental data. It is also a member of the ECO platform, which strives to make verified EPDs freely available at European level.
The HYBRIS actis insulation is also certified under the BM TRADA Building Insulation Products Q-Mark Scheme. It is available in various thicknesses and has an ‘R’ value of 5.70 m2/W. It is a highly effective form of insulation, which requires a minimum thickness of 150mm and 20mm air gaps either side. Hybris Actis insulation is CE-certified and registered with the LABC, the local building authority. It is also BREEAM-certified and has an energy performance rating of A.
HYBRIS actis insulation is CE-marked and fully certified, which makes it a highly versatile and cost-effective option for high-performance insulation. The insulation is available for wall applications, ceilings and timber frame applications. The product also features a breather membrane that provides complete protection against moisture. This unique combination allows HYBRIS to meet U-value requirements with minimal thickness. It can also be used as a soundproofing material for walls and floors.
HYBRIS actis insulation features a honeycomb structure and is ideal for pitched roofs, timber frame walls, and suspended timber floors. Its lightweight design means it doesn’t sag or bulge over time and provides excellent thermal performance. It weighs less than 9.5kg/m3, making it easy to transport and store. Additionally, the copper-coloured internal face of HYBRIS is very pleasing to the touch.
TRIPLEX
TRIPLEX actis insulation is an energy-efficient building material. Its effective infrared reflectivity allows it to be used for both heating systems during the winter and solar radiation during the summer. It has internal reflective foils which act as an additional barrier to thermal transfer by radiation. Warm air rises and escapes upwards due to a difference in temperature. Therefore, the insulation of buildings with ACTIS technology reduces both warm air infiltration and cold air evaporation, thereby reducing thermal losses.
ACTIS has developed a new type of alveolaire isolant called the Triplex. The product has a spiral or torsaded shape that traps air and achieves high thermal performance. TRIPLEX actis insulation becomes more energy-efficient than traditional fiberglass insulation because it reduces heat transfer through the air ducts. In addition, the material is extremely durable and can be used in a variety of applications, including ceilings and walls.
ACTIS insulation is produced in France, and it aims to support local economy by producing high-quality products. This company also believes in the concept of innovation and is committed to enhancing well-being, comfort, and energy efficiency. The resulting product provides a high level of energy efficiency and is easy to recycle. It is also suitable for pitched roofs and timber frame walls. It has an impressive lifespan of 50 years, and it is reusable.
ACTIS Boost R
Actis Boost R is the next evolution in roofing insulation. The insulating breather membrane is CE marked, easy to install, and provides exceptional thermal performance. It reduces the total thickness of the main insulation while achieving the same U-value. It is also CE marked as a roof underlayment. Its unique combination of thermal and breathability properties allows it to be installed on steep sloped roofs.
Actis has been developing innovative building insulation products for 35 years. The innovative products are designed to improve building energy efficiency, increase comfort, and guarantee maximum health. Installers need only follow one easy-to-follow installation process, and the Actis Boost’R Hybrid Roof has a built-in breather membrane function. It reduces the thickness of main insulation and can be used with any other type of insulation. It is CE-marked and complies with European standards for roof underlayment and has been tested to prevent condensation.
Actis Boost R is CE-marked as a roof underlayment and rainscreen. Its built-in breather membrane offers exceptional thermal performance, reduces condensation risk, and is LABC and LABSS registered. It is also available in larger rolls. Further, it comes with built-in adhesive tapes. And, thanks to its high R value and high water-vapor permeability, Boost R HYBRID ROOF has the best of both worlds.
The Actis Boost R Hybrid Reflective Insulated Breathable Membrane is a high-performing multi-layer insulating material that can be used for both roof and wall applications. This insulating membrane also reduces the thickness of the insulation, making it easy to install. Unlike most foam insulations, the Actis Boost R Multi-Filament insulation is easy to install and maintain.
ACTIS H Control
Actis H Control insulation is a dual-performance product that provides the best of both worlds. It is a multi-foil insulation with an integrated vapour control layer. By combining both of these features, Actis H Control Insulation can reduce installation steps and main insulation thickness while maintaining the same ‘U’ value. This insulation is available in rolls that measure 1.6 x 6.25 m and ten m2.
ACTIS HControl Hybrid is a thin multifoil insulation that is a combination of thermal resistance and air tightness. This product reduces heat loss through condensation and conduction and is ideal for pitched roofs. It is lightweight and can be cut and stapled without creating fibre dust. The product is highly durable and does not cause thermal bridging. It is the perfect solution for homes and buildings that are experiencing high energy bills.
Actis H Control is 45mm thick and is made of two low emissivity outer layers. The outer layers act as insulating layers and offer an ‘R’ value of 3.20 m2 K/W. It requires a 20mm air gap on either side. Actis’s dual-assessment system ensures that Actis’ products are airtight. In addition to being thick and durable, Actis also ensures that the results last.
