K-13 Insulation


K-­13 is a spray­-applied insulation product tailored to your specific project requirements for insulation (R­- value), noise reduction (NRC), color, durability, condensation control, texture, and aesthetics. K­-13 can be applied to virtually any substrate including wood, steel, concrete, glass and other common surfaces. K-­13 serves as an exposed finish requiring no additional treatment or materials. K-­13 is comprised of high quality recycled natural cellulose fibers, chemically treated to provide a Class I fire rating and prevent mold growth, then blended with a multi-­component adhesive system. Available in a wide variety of colors, K-­13 is especially attractive as a surface finish in new construction as well as renovation projects. Available in seven standard colors, K-­13 can also be specified in specially matched custom colors.

Condensation Control


For areas such as indoor pools and ice arenas, K­13 aids in condensation control. The proper combination of K­-13 and ventilation prevents condensation on metal, concrete and other surfaces. K-­13 actually reduces ventilation requirements, saving in both the ventilation equipment investment and operating cost.

Acoustical Performance


The resilient fibers of K­-13 absorb sound energy instead of reflecting it, reducing reverberation time and making speech and music more intelligible. Excessive noise is reduced with the application of K­-13 while greatly improving ambient sound quality in a wide variety of building projects including auditoriums, sports facilities, detention facilities, television and sound studios, convention centers and parking garages.

Thermal Performance


K-­13 insulates by creating dead air spaces between and within its hollow fibers. Because K-­13 fibers are sprayed­-in-­place, they fill cracks, seams and voids, forming a monolithic coating over the substrate which helps reduce air infiltration. Unlike prefabricated insulations, K-­13 has no voids or compressed areas to reduce thermal efficiency. The result is a more effective in-­place product with exceptionally low heat loss characteristics. The patented adhesive utilized in the installation of K­-13 adheres to virtually all common construction materials including: metal, wood, concrete, urethane, styrofoam and glass. Some surfaces may require pre-treatment prior to installing K­-13. This unique adhesive provides unequaled strength allowing applications of 3/4 inch to over 5 inches without mechanical support. This capability provides R-­values from 3 to over 19.
