OMNI CORE Cement Block Insulation

Insulation inserts made to fit all block sizes and shapes.




Insulation inserts that are changing the face of concrete masonry wall systems.
Until now, if you wanted insulated concrete masonry units (CMU's), you had to accept standard size blocks. But not any longer. Shelter Enterprises' Omnicore insulation inserts adapt to both rectangular and pear-shaped cores and can be cut and factory-installed in any standard or architectural CMU.
OmniCore are compressible block insulation inserts that are made from expanded polystyrene (EPS) and engineered to fit into the cores of concrete masonry units (CMUs). Any CMU. Because unlike other manufacturers' inserts, OmniCore inserts are cut, not molded, and so are available in both standard and architectural blocks.
OmniCore inserts, which are available factory-installed in your block of choice, are cost-efficient with a lower cost per unit than other insulated blocks. Bacause of ease of installation, you'll also reduce time and costs on the job. Blocks with OmniCore inserts eliminate jobsite labor and the waste and clean-up inherent in other insulation methods. You'll also gain more control over the job with the assurance that insulation inserts are properly installed to give the maximum thermal protection.

OmniCore's thermal efficiencies are among the best in the industry, giving you the advantages of high thermal efficiency without the disadvantages of potential condesation. OmniCore maintains a clear air space within the block cores, allowing for moisture to be routed out by flashing and weeps. With OmniCore insulated CMUs, you'll build an energy-efficient, long-lasting, no-maintenance wall - in all sizes and shapes of clock.
