Gapotape is an innovative insulation tape developed by Gapogroup Ltd, designed to enhance the performance of rigid insulation boards used in walls, roofs, and floors.
• Air Tightness
Gapotape effectively seals gaps around insulation boards, preventing air leaks. This improves the overall energy efficiency of a building by reducing heat loss and preventing drafts.
• Thermal Bridging Prevention
The tape helps eliminate thermal bridging, which occurs when heat travels through gaps in insulation, thereby improving the insulation's overall thermal performance.
• Durable and Weather Resistant
Gapotape is designed to withstand environmental conditions such as moisture, temperature fluctuations, and UV exposure, ensuring it remains effective over time.
• Applications
The tape is flexible, making it easy to apply around corners, edges, and irregular shapes, ensuring a tight seal in all areas.
• British Board of Agrément (BBA):
Gapotape has been extensively validated through in-situ testing by the BBA, effectively eliminating air leakage and thermal bridging when used with rigid insulation boards in roofs, walls, and floors.
• National Physics Laboratory (NPL):
The product has also been tested by the NPL, confirming its efficacy in preventing air voids and ensuring optimal thermal performance when properly installed.
How does Gapotape improve insulation performance? By sealing gaps around insulation boards, Gapotape prevents air leaks and thermal bridging, which can significantly reduce the effectiveness of insulation. Its application ensures that the insulation maintains its intended thermal resistance, leading to improved energy efficiency and comfort within the building.
Is Gapotape suitable for outdoor applications? Gapotape is primarily designed for indoor use to seal gaps around rigid insulation boards in roofs, walls, and floors. For outdoor applications or exposure to external elements, consult Gapogroup or a professional installer to determine suitability and any necessary precautions.
How long does Gapotape last? Gapotape is designed for durability, maintaining its adhesive properties and effectiveness over time. For specific lifespan details and performance guarantees, refer to Gapogroup's technical datasheets or contact them directly.
