The Technology Behind Actis Hybris Panel
Actis Hybris panel are the ultimate combination of innovative technologies for high performing long-lasting insulation materials. This product is a unique blend of reflective foils, expanded and shaped polyethylene foam and a reflective vapour control layer. The key technology is the use of reflective materials, whether keeping hot air from entering the building in warmer climates or to prevent hot air from leaving the building in the cooler months.
An additional innovative technology is the closed-cell foam structure that traps heat and reduces air pockets, which serves as an insulating barrier against heat transfer.
Another technology is the vapour control layer that allows moisture to escape while providing a barrier against heat transfer.

Advantages Vs Disadvantages of Actis Hybris
Actis Hybris Insulation offers a variety of advantages due to their ease of use and continuous benefits, however, the panels also come with a selection of disadvantages. Regardless of these factors, Actis insulation remains a popular choice for many projects within the construction industry due to their overall high-performance levels and endless benefits.
Advantages of Actis Hybris Panel:
- Thermal Efficiency: Actis insulation offers excellent thermal performance, helping to maintain a temperature-controlled space within the building. This can result in reduced energy consumption and lower utility bills.
- Versatility: Actis Hybris Panel can be used with a variety of applications including roofs, walls, ceilings, and floors within a variety of living spaces and work environments.
- Space-saving: Actis Hybris Panel have a thinner and more flexible profile compared to traditional insulation materials. This product us greater for projects with tight and difficult spaces.
- Ease of Installation: The panels are lightweight and easy to install as well as cut. They can be installed quickly with little or no use of tools or equipment, saving time and labour costs.
- Sound Reduction: The Actis Hybris acoustic properties means reduced sound transmissions throughout different areas of the building. This will improve privacy and comfort.
- Moisture Resistance: This insulation material is designed to resist moisture infiltration, helping to reduce growth of mold and mildew. This can increase the lifespan of the building materials and create healthier indoor environments.
Disadvantages of Actis Hybris Panel:
- Costs: Actis insulation can have a slightly higher upfront cost than other insulation materials however over time the cost will balance itself due to the energy savings and bill reductions over time.
- Limited Availability: Dependant on location, the panels may not be available as soon as other insulation materials that are ready as and when ordered. This may lead to longer wait times or higher delivery fees.
Applications of Actis Hybrid Panel Insulation
Actis Hybris Panel can be applied to a variety of application inclusive of new builds, renovations, and extension within industrial, residential, and commercial properties.
Application methods include:
- Pitched roofs within the timber rafters
- Ceiling applications between the rafters
