Minimise Heat Loss with Ancon Thermal Breaks

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.
