Amazing Results with New Insulation Technique, Tonzon Showcased at Eco-Build

March 01, 2010

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--With only 30 gram of thermal insulation per square meter the excessive heat flux through the wall behind a radiator is blocked, with 40 gram per square meter the water in your bathtub will stay warm for over an hour and with 60 gram per square meter the ground floor of your house will get even warmer than the air above it and this does not cost energy. These insulation techniques showcased at Tonzon stand 2198, Eco-Build 2010 in London from 2-4 March, will save energy instead. Scientists are amazed about the capabilities of Tonzon's Thermocushion. It only weighs 60 gram per square metre, which is less than normal paper. However, a floor fitted with Thermocushions from below get an U-value less then 0.22 W/sq m.K. (Rd>4,35 sq mK/W). They warm the floor to a temperature that is even higher than the air above it. Just by saving energy. Is the Dutch Tonzon company trying to sell us some kind of perpetual motion? The mystery is resolved at www.tonzon.tv where an animated diagram explains the energy flow in the house. Also the Thermocushion is ecologically very sound since transport and production costs are minimal.
