Eco friendly

The bark of the cork tree is removed every nine years causing large amounts of oxygen to be released by the tree into the environment. The tree will last for hundreds of years continuing to grow new bark. Thermal Cork-Shield is a greener naturally renewable resource.

Hypoallergenic

Thermal CorkShield™ does not shed its fibers, reducing dust build up. It is an ideal product for anyone who suffers with Allergies or Athsma.

Salt penetration

Our product allows for minimal salt penetration protecting your home or building from damage.

Mold and mildew resistant

Combines the natural properties of cork preventing mold and mildew growth. Laboratory test show 0 (zero) mold or mildew growth on our product.

Durability

Thermal CorkShield™ is extremely resistant to harsh conditions, only fading 1% – 2% annually. One on the natural properties of cork is it will never reach a freezing point even after being submerged in liquid nitrogen.

Fire Retardant

Cork is a natural fire retardant material that will not release incandescent particles, nor will the flames propagate. It slows or stops the spread of fire or reduces its intensity. This is accomplished by chemical reactions that reduce the flammability of fuels or delay their combustion. Thermal CorkShield™ has an ASTM E84-14 Class B Fire Rating.

Acoustic Insulation

Thermal CorkShield™ will make your home or building quieter reducing sound. It can reduce echo in any room, home, & business which is why sound recording studios still use cork to help prevent sound reverberation.

Flexibility / Elasticity

Our product has elastic properties which means that it can expand and contract depending on the weather. Unlike stucco and paint, our product will not chip or crack. Due to its flexibility, Thermal CorkShield™ has the capacity to recover the initial volume after experiencing deformation. It can virtually eliminate the cracking seen in most stucco finishes.

Thermal Insulation

Vipeq’s Thermal CorkShield™ is a natural thermal barrier that greatly reduces heat or cold from penetrating into your home or office. When the cork is applied to the surface of your home, it creates a thermal barrier that keeps the cold outside. One of the properties of cork is that it will never go below 0° C nor above 30° C.

The surface of your home or building will feel cool in the summer and warm in the winter. This creates a thermal break, thereby reducing your energy bills in both summer and winter.
