Ancon Building Products will feature its new range of low thermal conductivity wall ties which minimise heat transfer through a masonry cavity wall at Ecobuild this year.
Use of these wall ties can reduce insulation thickness and wall footprint.
In addition to Ancon’s stainless steel wire wall ties, this range includes the BBA-approved TeploTie. The innovative Ancon TeploTie is manufactured from basalt fibres and has a thermal conductivity of just 0.7W/mK. Fixings with a conductivity of under 1.0W/mK are excluded from U-value calculations to EN ISO 6946.
Ancon’s low conductivity range is manufactured in a variety of lengths to suit cavities from 50mm to 300mm, so even the most super-insulated homes can be built using traditional cavity wall construction methods.
Many Ancon products are fabricated from stainless steel; this material has an approximate 60% recycled content, a lower thermal conductivity than carbon steel and is 100% recyclable at the end of a long, low maintenance service life.
