ArmathermTM FRR
ArmathermTM Fabric Reinforced Resin (FRR) Thermal Break Pads deliver high performance thermal insulation
between interior and exterior steelwork and / or concrete to prevent thermal bridging. Cutting out thermal
bridging stops conduction heat loss and prevents surface condensation from forming inside the building
that can be due to cold transfer meeting warm air.
