Exterior anti-cold bridge architectural profiles
An insulating product for providing insulation around the peripheral edge of a window or door positioned in a structure. The insulating product comprises a body 0 and a core 1 coated in an elastomeric material 2. A first abutment surface 4a for abutting a window or door reveal and a second abutment surface 4b for abutting an outer wall of the structure are provided. The core may comprise foam, such as expanded polystyrene. The coating may include polyurea, epoxy or polyurethane-polyurea hybrid, and may also include a particulate material adhered to the elastomeric material. The insulating product may be L-shaped. Also claimed is a method of installing the insulating product. The present invention enables a reduction in cold bridging on buildings using profiles that may be decorative surrounds (Fig. 3 and 4).
