Switchable Insulation Innovations Ltd

Switchable Insulation enables thermal properties of building envelopes to be switched on & off in response to changing climatic conditions, reducing heating & cooling energy demands by 30-50%, whilst also improving thermal comfort for building occupants. We are developing a product which allows insulated walls and roofs to benefit from passive solar gains and free cooling by enabling insulating properties to be "switched off" when beneficial to do so, for example, when there is winter or in summer to help reject heat Our product uses patented Thermal Diode technology to enable the U-value to be dynamically switched between 0.2 and 20 W/m2K and can be controlled by an industry standard BMS.
