QuickEdge: Smarter Slab Edge Insulation
QuickEdge: Smarter Slab Edge Insulation for Energy-Efficient Foundations
When it comes to improving the energy efficiency of a home, the foundation is one of the most critical starting points. While under-slab insulation is widely used, slab edge insulation is often overlooked, yet it plays a key role in preventing heat loss and supporting a warmer, drier indoor environment.
That’s where QuickEdge comes in.
Why Choose QuickEdge?
Developed as a practical, performance-driven solution, QuickEdge delivers targeted slab edge insulation that helps meet the evolving thermal performance standards under Clause H1 of the New Zealand Building Code.
Key Benefits:
-
Cost-Effective Performance: Delivers excellent thermal results at a lower installed cost than more complex systems.
-
Simple, Fast Installation: Compatible with standard formwork systems, reducing time on site and labour requirements.
-
Built to Last: Offers long-term protection against heat loss, moisture damage, and environmental wear at one of the slab’s most vulnerable points.
