Alumaflex, Ballytherm, Natuwool, Magply and Natuhemp can all be installed in different building applications, these include timber frame, loft conversions and new build. They have the capability of reducing energy loss and providing building inhabitants with free passive energy absorbed from solar gain, whilst the high thermal mass in Natuwool helps reduce peak temperatures.

Full technical support is available both in office and online with comprehensive installation instructions, U-Value calculations, detail drawings and comprehensive installation video instructions, U-Value calculator. IPP and the Black Mountain Range of materials are all available throughout the UK via a network of merchants.

IPP continue to look at ways to reduce CO2 emissions in their approach and with new products. The Black Mountain range of insulation products have a part to play in the carbon cycle. Natuwool and Natuhemp bond to VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) and remove them from the atmosphere. Both are Hygrothermal in that they absorb moisture from the atmosphere and subsequently dissipate it as the fabric of the building heats up in Spring/Summer producing a very elegant moisture control system.

The materials used in our production are carefully selected. Eg. Sheep’s Wool is available in many formats but to have the best Hygrothermal Performance, long fibres are used with minimal binder, these fibres not only can absorb 35% of their own weight in moisture vapour without losing insulation value they also have a greater surface area to bond airborne VOCs; both features improve the air quality of your building.
