Design Flexibility & Performance from Scotframe Val-u-therm PLUS®

Val-u-therm PLUS® wall panels achieve 0.08 W/M2K - probably the best U-value wall in the world. Couple this with Scotframe’s expertise & track record and the sky really is the limit when it comes to design of buildings that tick all the boxes on your clients’ wish lists.

Key to achieving this extraordinary performance is that the insulation is injected in off-site, quality-controlled factory conditions. The foam expands into every nook and cranny, providing a best-in-class BR443 U-value correction factor of zero. As well as excellent thermal insulation performance, details are available to minimise thermal bridging and give excellent airtight fabric levels. The Scotframe Val-u-therm® building system was originally launched in 2011 and has been used in over 8,500 homes with an excellent track record.
