Brick support systems from Ancon can be supplied with Thermal Breaks to minimise heat loss through cold bridging, and improve the energy efficiency of a building.
Ancon Thermal Breaks work by inserting a material with a very low thermal conductivity between the brackets and the frame. They are proven through thermal modelling to reduce heat loss and can typically enable details to comply with BRE IP1/06 floor junction.
AnconOptima creates a continuous length of angle to support an outer leaf of masonry. This standard system comprises brackets and angles supplied off-the-shelf as separate components whereas Ancon MDC is designed to suit the specific cavity width and masonry load of a project. Individual brackets to support special features, such as curves and arches, are also available.
