Fabreeka International releases new Green Fabreeka-TIM - structural thermal break material

Fabreeka International has introduced their Fabreeka-TIM, structural thermal break material. Due to the growing requirement within the A/E/C industry for structural thermal breaks to reduce energy loss, the need to evaluate thermal bridging in a building's design and performance, especially when seeking LEED accreditation, has become more prevalent. Fabreeka-TIM is a cost efficient solution for new construction and/or renovation/restoration projects. When you see green Fabreeka-TIM in the field, you can feel confident that you have a superior product which conforms to the published specifications for our thermal break material. Fabreeka has a long history in the A/E/C industry and we have many knowledgeable engineers on staff ready to assist. Fabreeka-TIM is a load bearing thermal break that maintains structural integrity while reducing energy loss. Made in the USA, Fabreeka-TIM is stocked in several standard thicknesses, including 1/4", 1/2" and 1", for a quick turnaround. Fabreeka utilizes a water jet machine for precise cutting to any configuration. It can be supplied with Fabreeka-TIM washers, and Fabreeka bushings, which when used together in a structural connection will greatly reduce the energy loss rate through conduction. Headquarters is located in Stoughton, Mass., Fabreeka is an international company focused on the development and manufacture of components to control vibration and shock. Fabreeka's experience in shock and vibration technology began in 1936 with the development of the unique Fabreeka Pad. This resilient, preformed fabric pad provided shock and vibration control characteristics that were far superior to anything available at that time. The Fabreeka pad is still used for shock control in applications today. An international presence demonstrates Fabreeka's ongoing tradition of excellence in vibration and shock technology.
