New Energy-Saving Web Service from One Building
One Building, based in Meguro, Tokyo, has recently launched a free web service aimed at energy-efficiency calculations for non-residential buildings. This innovative platform now features product data for the "Pufftem Form Series", a high-performance spray-applied rigid polyurethane foam insulation manufactured by Japan Pufftem Co., Ltd., headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo.
This new integration allows architects and builders to perform exterior performance calculations using Pufftem's insulation products directly through their web browsers at the initial design stages, making energy-efficient design more accessible and straightforward.
Value Gained from the Collaboration
By combining Japan Pufftem's spray-applied rigid polyurethane foam with the energy-saving web service, users can visualize the energy consumption metrics effectively, from exterior envelope performance (BPIm) to total primary energy consumption (BEIm), all within a single platform. This setup simplifies the simulation process for the insulation material, enhancing the airtightness and thermal performance of buildings, even in challenging non-residential construction scenarios.
Expected Benefits in Design Practice
1.
Accelerated Assessments through Automatic Specifications
The service allows for the direct selection of product names, thicknesses, and thermal conductivities from the interface, eliminating time-consuming manual entries and expediting exterior calculations significantly.
2.
High-Precision Evaluations Based on Actual Performance
Given the spray application method's unique insulation capabilities, simulations that consider tight seals and no gaps become possible, leading to more accurate evaluations of exterior performance.
3.
Designing Without Rework
The platform accommodates the complexities often found in non-residential constructions, allowing for initial planning that considers the fillability of foam insulation around existing structures like beams, columns, and conduits. This foresight minimizes the risk of subsequent changes during the construction phase.
4.
Optimal Method Comparisons Within the Platform
Users can easily compare the performance of different insulation materials on the same platform, deriving data-driven solutions tailored to specific projects.
5.
Increased Persuasiveness in Proposals Using Real Product Data
Presenting specifications based on reliable product metrics enhances the credibility and convincing power of energy performance explanations to clients.
About the Pufftem Form Series
The Pufftem Form Series consists of spray-applied rigid polyurethane foam insulation that has seen widespread application across various construction sectors, including non-residential buildings.
This series offers excellent thermal conductivity rated at 0.026 W/(m・K) and remarkable application properties, establishing it as a leading choice for energy efficiency.
Features of Puffguard
Puffguard, characterized as a fire-retardant type of polyurethane, offers not only the robust performance of Pufftem Form but also addresses fire safety concerns during construction. Additionally, it uses bio-based materials, achieving eco-friendly certifications and contributing to carbon neutrality.
Features of Puffpure Ace
Puffpure Ace is a versatile non-fluorinated type that is successfully meeting energy efficiency standards across both residential and non-residential sectors, thus supporting the push for zero energy buildings (ZEB).
