KINGSPAN PUTS ON PERFORMANCE AT
CREATIVE ARTS BUILDING
Canterbury Christ Church University’s new Daphne Oram Creative Arts Building
looks to showcase the best of modern construction with an attractive, highly
energy e icient design utilising Kingspan Therma Duct Insulation.
Nicholas Hare Architects and principal building contractor – Coombs – worked
to develop a sensitive design which is separated over three volumes and uses
brick and reconstituted stone to respond sensitively to the surrounding context.
Delivering excellent energy performance
was also a priority, with the building
designed to achieve BREEAM ‘Very Good’.
Project M&E consultants, Max Fordham LLP,
carefully developed the building services
specification to minimise plant energy use.
As part of this approach, Kingspan Therma
Duct Insulation was specified as part of the
mechanical ventilation system servicing
specialist music rehearsal spaces on the
ground floor.
Kingspan Therma Duct Insulation o ers a
simple insulation solution for lagging rectangular, circular or flat oval ductwork.
The boards provide excellent insulating performance with a thermal conductivity
of 0.023 W/mK, limiting heat transfer to and from the ductwork.
Kingspan Therma Duct Insulation, produced at Kingspan Insulation’s
Pembridge and Selby manufacturing facilities, are certified to BES 6001
‘Excellent’. This contributed to the work to achieve additional credits within the
responsible sourcing section of the BREEAM assessment. The product is now
also supported with an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD).
