Kingspan Insulation North America recently introduced Kooltherm® K100—a high-performance foam plastic insulation engineered to meet the thermal, space, and safety demands of construction and retrofit projects. With an R-value of 8.1 to 8.3 per inch, Kooltherm K100 offers the industry’s highest thermal performance among commonly available insulations within a thin profile. This efficiency allows for thinner wall assemblies, which helps project teams maximize interior learning space, reduce material usage and lower construction costs—without sacrificing code compliance. Designed with advanced fire resistance and increased design flexibility, Kooltherm K100 achieves a Class A flame and smoke rating (ASTM E84) and passes multiple NFPA 285 assemblies. It also offers zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and low Global Warming Potential (GWP), making it ideal for environmentally responsible construction.
