Can you tell me what the dimensions are of those exterior panels are that you're putting in? Particularly the depth from the inner grove in mm? Thanks. And please don't fob me off with a link to your website
Why? without sheathing and some form of siding what is the point? Surely the glued on Styrofoam panels can nor hold the attachment of plywood or OSB sheathing. I am really interested in this product as my plans are for a 40 x 16 ft container home build very soon.
Almon Jacob - Watch this vid and you will understand more about the anchoring capabilities of this product. It completely eliminates the need for OSB or plywood to attach whatever siding you choose to install. Want to leave the container looking original? Use this product only on the inside and you eliminate the need for metal or wood studs to mount your drywall. ruclips.net/video/bWK-LNMD61Q/видео.html
@@kimberlyrichardson9869 It's rinky-dink. And they won't tell you the R-rating, so it must be bad. As you'd expect with styrofoam. And they won't tell you the price, so it must be high. And how do you put siding over the styrofoam? They'll probably tell to you attach it to the black strips, but that's not sufficient support. So, drill into the metal. Yuck. And you're trapping moisture between the metal and siding. Metal rusts. Yes, I know it's painted, but still, eventually, and you won't see it because now it's covered up. Just a bad concept executed poorly.
OK, thanks! In the vid, they said this solves the condensation problem. For my first project, I probably would not apply siding. With the increase in Container Homes, I can imagine people are going to try all kinds of things. What kind of insulation do you recommend for the temp in New Orleans?
@@kimberlyrichardson9869 Yes, I heard them say it solves the condensation problem too. With the traditional pink fiberglass insulation, condensation damages it, makes it cling and sag, a little like if you were to mist cotton candy. If you have their styrofoam block, the condensation just rolls off. However, in the unlikely event you have condensation, you still have it with their system and it's not good for the metal shipping container wall. Unless a great new product comes along, I'd suggest a traditional framed wall up against the metal wall and insulating between the frame's 2x4s like in a regular house. That's what people normally do, and the only drawback is you lose about 4 inches of living space where you now have a 2x4 and sheetrock.
@@Kube_Dog You apparently didn't think to look around their site. www.insofast.com/products/shipping-container-insulation-panels.html 2/3rds of the way down the page. By themselves, you're only looking at maybe an R11 nominal. Combined with interior insulation, you're looking at R24 nominal. Also, the shipping containers are corten steel. They're designed to rust in a controlled manner. And if you start with a slightly rusted container, simply take a wire brush on a drill motor to the area. Then treat it with rust preventing sealer/paint. Also, look at how they're attaching with the adhesive. Vertical lines. So if you DO get water behind the insulation (or simple condensation), there's still a runoff path down the wall. And proper attention to your water and vapor control layers will further reduce water issues. You don't simply slap on the insulation and attach the siding. Also, you need to look at the other videos InSoFast has put up. How Strong is the InSoFast Panel's Embedded Stud? ruclips.net/video/PqbEcPlToE4/видео.html Basically, once the exterior wall/roof assembly is insulated, weather sealed and sided and roofed, you essentially have a complete exterior shell floating over a layer of insulation. You basically won't be able to delaminate the wall unless that's what you're ACTIVELY trying to do. They're not promising that you're going to get R50 or anything. They're simply providing you with a way to insulate the interior and exterior of a common shipping container in a way that doesn't rob space from the interior, and provides sufficient (and sufficiently strong) mounting points for interior and exterior finishing. Nobody is telling you that you can basically haul around the entire container by the plastic studs or that you should hang a brick finish off the things. So calm down just a bit. If you still don't think it's a product for you. Fine. Roll your own.
Can you show a video.of wall panels being installed on the exterior insofast panels.

@@insofast-continuous-insulation - Nice videos.
@@CasuallyObservant Thank you
@@CasuallyObservant Thank you
Please show cladding being installed on top of the exterior insofast.
We are working on that presently
@@insofast-continuous-insulation That's NotSoFast.
@@Kube_Dog its taking quite a long time
@@ondrejv416 Indeed, it is. I bet it's gonna be fantastic when they get to it in 2027.
How thick is inulation?

Sorry we don't do mm on our youtube channel we are a US based company.
@@insofast-continuous-insulation well can you tell me the depth in inches then?
How do you cover the foam?using what material?you have a video of that?
Yes several: www.insofast.com/resources/shipping-containers-exterior-board-and-batten-siding.html

I wondered how to attach siding too. Telling me to put the insulation inside the shipping container is not an answer, you douche bag,.
I Have the exact the plans. How's that been going?
Junk product.
What makes you think it's junk?
