Schöck Isokorb® Structural Thermal Breaks. Cut heat loss and prevent condensation and mould. ▶ Reduce heat loss by up to 90% ▶ Prevent condensation and mould ▶ Reduce heat energy usage of the building by up to 14% ▶ Increase warmth of interior floors by up to 15°C/ 27°F ▶ Comply with code requirements for continuous insulation

Uninsulated balconies, canopies, slab edges and parapets penetrating insulated building envelopes create thermal bridging between the cold exterior and the warm interior structure that supports them, causing heat loss, condensation and mould. Isokorb® Structural Thermal Breaks prevent thermal bridging by insulating the building envelope at the penetration, while supporting loads equivalent to conventional concrete and/or steel structures, offering multiple benefits. ________________________________________________ Isokorb® Structural Thermal Breaks for concrete construction (above) contain engineered stainless steel rebar for casting into interior and exterior sides of the penetration. Isokorb® Structural Thermal Breaks for steel construction (left) bolt interior steel structures to cantilevered balcony supports, canopies or rooftop connections.
