Financial Advantages

Energy Savings

The thermal efficiency of the Kingspan TEK Building System can offer dramatic energy cost savings over the lifetime of the building.

Capital Cost Savings

To achieve equal energy performance e.g. a U-value of 0.22 W/m²·K and air leakage as low as 0.08 air changes per hour at normal air pressures, the capital cost of the KingspanTEK Building System would be considerably lower than an equivalent building using timber frame or masonry construction.

Landfill Savings

The Kingspan TEK Building System arrives on site as a complete scheme therefore there should be no site wastage apart from packaging materials and empty foam cans. This results in more efficient use of materials and also lower landfill fees.

Labour Savings

The Kingspan TEK Building System is designed and manufactured in the factory. Therefore, the scheme (including all ancillaries and fixings) is delivered complete and from one source, which will enable a weather-tight structure to be erected quickly.

Easily recognised components are shipped to the site for assembly, rather than waiting for a builder’s interpretation of plans. Kingspan TEK Building System panels also come in much larger dimensional sizes than other building materials meaning fewer components have to be handled during the erection process. A registered contractor’s team of 4-6 can erect a Kingspan TEK Building System very quickly.

This can compare favourably with traditional construction techniques such as brick and block where there are more components which can result in more processes and therefore more labour and possible construction errors.

Opens Doors Faster

When the building is built for the purpose of renting, the shorter construction time of the Kingspan TEK Building System, can enable tenants to move in sooner and consequently the owner achieves a better cash flow and therefore faster payback.
