Corksol Internal Wall Insulation
What Is Corksol Internal Wall Insulation?

Homes across the UK are losing up to 35% of their heat through uninsulated walls.

Corksol is a spray-applied natural cork coating that provides thermal insulation, acoustic comfort, condensation control, and breathability in a thin, seamless layer.

Corksol is the ideal choice when…

You want insulation that does not reduce room size

Your walls must stay breathable

You own a solid-wall or heritage property

You want a fast, clean installation

Moisture management is a priority

Traditional IWI is more suitable when maximum U-value reduction is required and space is not an issue. However, for most homeowners balancing aesthetics, comfort, space, and moisture control—Corksol is the superior modern solution.

Key Benefits Of Corksol IWI

Now applying Corksol for exceptional durability and performance.

Ultra-Thin Thermal Performance Corksol can improve wall U-values and internal warmth with a build-up as thin as 8–12mm, helping preserve room sizes—ideal for small bedrooms, hallways, or tight spaces.

Reduces Heat Loss & Lowers Energy Bills The natural thermal resistance of cork significantly reduces heat transfer through external walls, improving comfort and energy efficiency.

Breathable & Moisture-Regulating Corksol allows walls to breathe naturally, preventing trapped moisture and reducing the risk of condensation and mould. Perfect for older or solid-wall buildings where vapour barriers can cause problems.

Seamless and Flexible Application Sprayed directly onto existing plaster or masonry, creating a continuous coating with no cold-bridging risks and minimal disruption to the household.

Eco-Friendly & Sustainable Made from 100% natural cork, harvested without cutting down trees. Cork regenerates every nine years—making Corksol one of the most sustainable insulation materials available.

Improves Acoustic Comfort Cork’s natural sound-dampening qualities help reduce airborne noise from outside or neighbouring rooms.

Fire-Resistant, Hypoallergenic & Non-Toxic A safe and healthy choice for homes, schools, and commercial interiors.

Compatible with Multiple Finishes Can be left as a decorative finish or skimmed/plastered over for a traditional look.

Perfect Use Cases For Corksol IWI

Rooms Prone to Condensation Provides natural moisture regulation—ideal for…
Bedrooms
Living rooms
Home offices
Cold corners and bridging points

Hard-to-Insulate Areas Curved walls, awkward shapes, chimney breasts, and irregular surfaces where rigid boards are difficult to install.

How Corksol Compares to Traditional IWI Systems
Feature / Consideration Corksol IWI Traditional IWI (Boards / Studs)
Thickness 8–12mm build-up 60–120mm typical thickness
Space Loss Minimal to none Significant loss of floor area
Breathability Fully breathable Often requires vapour barrier; can trap moisture
Moisture / Mould Risk Very low – cork regulates humidity Higher – moisture can get trapped behind boards
Installation Disruption Low – sprayed on, no major construction Moderate–high: battening, boarding, plastering, socket adjustments
Cold Bridging None – continuous layer Common around fixings and frame edges
Adaptability to Curves / Uneven Walls Excellent Difficult or impossible
Acoustic Improvement Good Good–very good depending on board type
Eco-Friendliness Natural, renewable material Boards often include plastics, foams, adhesives
Cost Mid-range Wide range; cheaper basic options but more labour-intensive overall
U-Value Improvement Moderate (best for space-constrained or breathable wall projects) High (can achieve very low U-values with thicker boards)
