VIPEQ cork spray insulation applied to metal cladding building

Metal Cladding Insulation — Ireland

Insulate Metal Cladding Without Removing It

VIPEQ Thermal Corkspray is spray-applied directly onto the inside of metal cladding — eliminating condensation, reducing heat loss and stopping rain noise. No removal, no disruption.

The Problem with Metal Buildings

Metal Cladding is Difficult to Insulate — Until Now

Metal buildings — sheds, warehouses, agricultural units and steel-frame structures — conduct heat and cold rapidly. This creates chronic condensation problems, freezing interiors in winter, overheating in summer and relentless rain noise. Traditional insulation methods require removing the cladding or losing significant interior space.

VIPEQ Thermal Corkspray changes that. It's spray-applied directly onto the interior face of metal cladding — conforming to every profile, rib and joint — creating a seamless, breathable thermal layer without any structural work.

Spray-applied inside — no cladding removal
Follows all corrugated profiles and joints
Breathable — prevents moisture and rust
Working environment dramatically improved

Condensation on Metal Buildings

Condensation Dripping from Your Roof or Walls?

Condensation on metal cladding is caused by the cold bridge effect — warm, humid air inside the building meets the cold metal surface and moisture drops out. This leads to dripping ceilings, rusting fixings, damaged stock and mould growth. Cork spray eliminates the cold surface entirely, stopping condensation at source.

Stops Condensation

Warm cork surface replaces cold metal — moisture has nowhere to condense.

Thermal Barrier

Dramatically reduces heat transfer through the metal skin of the building.

Protects the Structure

Breathable coating prevents trapped moisture and slows corrosion of metal.

Applications

Where We Apply Cork Spray to Metal Buildings

Agricultural Sheds & Barns

Livestock sheds, hay barns and farm storage buildings with metal cladding suffer from severe condensation. Cork spray eliminates this and improves temperature stability for animals and stored produce.

Industrial Units & Warehouses

Large metal-clad warehouses and factory units benefit from cork spray applied directly to internal cladding, reducing heating costs and improving working conditions.

Steel Frame Garden Rooms

Metal-framed garden rooms, studios and annexes with metal cladding are notoriously difficult to insulate. Cork spray provides a seamless, effective solution without compromising interior space.

Sports Halls & Leisure Buildings

Metal-clad sports facilities frequently suffer condensation on internal surfaces. Cork spray solves this while also reducing noise reverberation inside the building.

Commercial Portacabins & Site Offices

Temporary and permanent site offices, portacabins and modular buildings with metal skins are cold and prone to condensation. Cork spray transforms comfort levels rapidly.

Cold Stores & Food Production

Metal-walled cold stores and food production facilities use cork spray to manage thermal bridging at cladding joints and reduce surface condensation risks.

How It's Done

Application Process

01

Site Assessment

We inspect the building, measure the area and assess the metal cladding condition and profile type.

02

Surface Preparation

The interior cladding surface is cleaned and any rust or debris addressed before application.

03

Spray Application

VIPEQ Thermal Corkspray is sprayed directly onto the metal panels, conforming to all profiles and joints.

04

Seamless Finish

A continuous, seamless thermal and breathable cork layer — no cold bridges, no condensation.
