The TCB Cavity Barrier is used within external wall cavities to enhance fire safety, maintain thermal continuity, and comply with building regulations: The TCB Cavity Barrier is used within external wall cavities to enhance fire safety, maintain thermal continuity, and comply with building regulations. It is particularly suited for installation in line with separating walls and floors and around window and door openings. Its versatility and ease of installation make it a practical solution for improving the safety and energy efficiency of buildings.

• What is ARC TCB? - ARC TCB (Thermal Cavity Barrier) is a high-performance insulation product designed to provide fire protection and reduce thermal bridging in cavity walls. It helps in maintaining energy efficiency and enhancing fire safety in buildings.
• How is ARC TCB installed? - ARC TCB is installed within the cavity of walls, typically at points where the cavity width changes or at junctions. The barrier should be placed snugly between the inner and outer layers of the wall to ensure it functions effectively in preventing the spread of fire and reducing thermal bridging.
• What are the benefits of using ARC TCB? - The main benefits include effective fire protection by preventing the passage of flames and smoke through cavities, improved thermal efficiency by reducing thermal bridging, and compliance with building regulations for fire safety.
• How does ARC TCB enhance building performance? - ARC TCB enhances building performance by minimising thermal bridging, which helps reduce energy loss and lower heating and cooling costs. Additionally, it provides a critical barrier against the spread of fire, contributing to overall safety.
