CIP Now Certified to Install K-13

CIP announces that we have earned the certification from International Cellulose Corporation (ICC) for installing K-13 acoustic/thermal insulation. We are proud to be certified to install K-13 because it demonstrates CIP’s commitment to quality and excellence in the industry. 

K-13 is a patented spray insulation system that provides a durable, attractive finish for an exposed ceiling, as well as noise control, and thermal insulation. The ceiling configuration can include metal deck, barrel-vaults, concrete “T”, corrugated decks, gypsum, wood, concrete, and many other complex surfaces.

K-13 meets project requirements for thermal insulation. It has exceptionally low heat-loss characteristics and an R-Value of 3.75 per inch. It also effectively reduces reverberation for noise control, making it perfect for noisy environments like restaurants and open-office plans.
