“..the clients’ brief was
that they wanted to create
an energy efficient and
warm home. Specification
of Kingspan products
helped to achieve this and
we greatly exceeded the
energy requirements of
building regulations. The
clients have found that
they typically don't have to
turn on the heating on the
upper floors and have low
annual energy demands.”

Building
a Better
World
House-within-a-House
A 1950s post-war townhouse in Brockley,
London, has been enveloped in roof,
floor and wall insulation and a modern
outer shell to create a unique family
home, one which has won RIBA awards
at a national level.
By adding a warm coat around the
entire structure, the thermally inefficient
1950s dwelling has been turned into a
highly insulated, airtight construction.
The thermal performance of the
property now vastly exceeds building
regulations and gives a comparative
reduction in CO2 emissions from 61.55
kg CO2e/m2 to 16.49 kg CO2e/m2.
