THERMOMASS - The product
What is THERMOMASS?
The THERMOMASS Building Insulation System is a unique, patented, pre-engineered, highly energy-efficient, insulated concrete sandwich wall system developed, manufactured and supplied by Composite Technologies Corporation (CTC).
THERMOMASS has been specified in over 100 million square feet of building panels in all 50 states and around the world since 1980, including over 200 refrigerated and frozen food building facilities, hundreds of dry storage warehouses, more than 220 federal, state and local correctional facilities in 40 states, and nearly 100 retail centers for The Home Depot.
The two components of the THERMOMASS system are extruded polystyrene insulation and CTC-manufactured, high-strength, fiber-composite connectors, or fasteners. The extruded insulation is sandwiched between two concrete layers. The three layers are held together by the connectors on a 16-inch or 12-inch grid.
The system is used in site-cast tilt-up, plant precast, modular precast, tunnel
form and poured-in-place concrete panels and walls.
