Flat Pack Insulation Kit

Product Description

A flat pack insulation kit is a cost-effective way to insulate your container and protect against condensation build up. This 4mm thick material is made from exactly the same material we use in our shipping container insulation kits. It performs similarly to 55mm of polystyrene insulation in terms of slowing heat loss from your storage container. This significant slowing of the heat escaping prevents any condensation build up inside your container as it cools overnight. The kits have a U value of 0.92 W/m²K.

This makes these units ideal for storing any condensation sensitive goods such as paperwork archives, fabrics and textiles, furniture, foodstuffs and more.

Installation

The kit arrives in pre cut panels to fit your container. Each panel has large strips of thermal bonding tape applied to the back and this will only stick better over time. Tape may come loose if the panels are regularly disturbed over time but this can be replaced pretty easily. There will be one panel for the door, this will need to be cut to allow the door to open. (Stanley knife or decent kitchen scissors should do this no problem).

For ease, we recommend fitting the kit with 2 people. One person holds one end of each panel into place, whilst the other person pulls off the backing from the bonding tape, and sticks it to the container. A broom will also come in handy to fit this to the container.

This how to fit video is available on our YouTube channel but also gives you a detailed idea of what the kit is like and the options available:

Fitting Around Internal Fixtures

Made of lots of small ‘cells’, the flat pack insulation kit can be cut if necessary. The material is easy to cut with decent kitchen scissors. You can cut the kit as necessary to work around shelving or other internal fixtures or fittings. The kit comes with spare thermal tape to allow for most customisations.

A tip from our customer who fitted the insulation kit around shelving:

“The key point is to do one side at at time, marking the position of the shelves before putting up the insulation (photo showing marking the container is shown in the product images). This makes it easier to find the exact position to cut. Then you move onto the next. Obviously you have to choose what height you want the shelves as you can’t change this after insulation with cutting more to find this out.”

Other Flat Pack Insulation Kit Options

Our standard flat pack insulation kits are available to order online. Other options are available, but would need to quoted and ordered manually with our Sales Team. Please get in touch with the team if you are interested in any of the below options.

Custom Sizes

We offer a few different ranges of flat pack containers along with the opportunity to link units. We can offer insulation kits for these ranges too. If you have a flat pack container, or shed which has not been purchased from us we can still supply suitable insulation kits. Just let us know the dimensions and we will be happy to quote for you.

Premium Eco-Quilt Insulation

We also offer a premium eco-quilt option, this is a bit thicker. It has more layers and works similarly to 80mm of polystyrene insulation. This we suggest if you need to seriously limit temperature fluctuations.

Floor Panel

We can offer kits with a floor panel option if needed, we recommend this if you want more than to just prevent condensation build up inside your container, eg if you need to limit temperature fluctuations internally.

Please note the floor in most of these images is a bamboo floor fitted by the customer. This does not come with the flat pack storage container. (all our flat packs come with a ply / OSB floor as standard with a steel frame underneath).
