TBK THERMOBLOK® – Persiana BASIC Thermally insulated shutter box for shutters

THERMOBLOK® Persiana BASIC 90 is a thermally insulating monoblock designed to accommodate windows and doors with external-frame shutters, engineered to ensure high thermal insulation performance, continuity of the building envelope and quick, precise installation of the entire window system.‎ Fully made to measure, it can be configured for window installation either flush with the internal wall or centre-aligned, adapting to specific design requirements.‎ The window frame is recessed on three sides and, where the wall construction allows, the system can also be configured to accommodate a recessed fly screen on three sides.‎ The front rebates are available in 72 mm or 54 mm configurations, whilst the fourth side, an 80 mm deep channel, is fitted with a dedicated thermal break.‎ TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: The system is made from EPS Neopor (sintered expanded polystyrene with graphite additive) with a density of 30 kg/m³ and a declared thermal conductivity of λD = 0.‎030 W/mK.‎ The top rail and side rails incorporate a load-bearing structure made of 18 mm phenolic-faced plywood, designed to act simultaneously as a sub-frame for both the internal window unit and the external shutter.‎ This construction solution allows the fixing of both the window unit and the external shutter to be integrated into a single structural element, improving installation precision, the stability of the entire system and the continuity of the window opening’s insulation.‎ The TBK Type BASIC 90 thermally insulated side jambs, with a thickness of 90 mm and a depth that varies according to the project, ensure high thermal insulation performance and help reduce thermal bridges, whilst guaranteeing the correct seating of both the window unit and the framed shutter.‎ The TBK Type 80 thermal insulation side panel, made from high-density XPS, completes the window assembly by eliminating the lower thermal bridge.‎ The special recessed design facilitates assembly with the side jambs and is designed to accommodate the window sill.‎ The system is supplied with a dedicated thermal break made of XPS for windows and Purenit for French windows.‎ The system can be supplemented with numerous optional extras, including provision for a recessed fly screen via a special aluminium profile and the TBK skim-coat system, comprising external wall insulation mortar, a plaster-reinforcing mesh and technical PVC profiles to ensure professional installation and a finish that blends seamlessly with the façade.‎ THERMAL PERFORMANCE Linear thermal transmittance of the jamb (Ψ): 0.‎000 W/(mK) without external insulation and 0.‎019 W/(mK) with external insulation, in accordance with UNI EN ISO 10211.‎ Linear thermal transmittance of the fourth side (Ψ): 0.‎044 W/(mK) without external insulation and 0.‎17 W/(mK) with external insulation, in accordance with UNI EN ISO 10211.‎ THERMOBLOK® is the professional range of prefabricated thermal insulation monoblocks for window openings, designed and patented by TBK to offer a comprehensive, efficient and bespoke solution for window and door installation.‎ Drawing on experience gained in the window opening sector, the THERMOBLOK® range allows all the functional elements of the window opening – roller shutter box, side jambs, fourth side and accessories – to be integrated into a single system, ensuring continuous insulation and effectively reducing thermal bridges.‎ THERMOBLOK® is designed and manufactured to measure, according to the building’s characteristics, the wall’s construction and the specific requirements of the building site.‎ This bespoke design ensures high performance, simplified installation and seamless integration with the building system.‎ The range includes various configurations to meet a wide variety of design requirements, whilst maintaining the same high quality standards in terms of thermal insulation, durability, construction precision and ease of installation.‎ Why choose THERMOBLOK® A system designed and patented by TBK.‎ Fully bespoke monoblocks.‎ Reduction of thermal bridges around the window opening.‎ Integration of the roller shutter box, side panels, fourth side and accessories into a single system.‎ Suitable for both new builds and energy-efficiency refurbishment projects.‎ Solutions that can be customised to meet the architectural and performance requirements of the project.‎ High-quality construction and ease of installation.‎ THERMOBLOK® is TBK’s solution for creating a high-performance window opening, combining energy efficiency, build quality and maximum design freedom.‎ Further info from manufacturer on THERMOBLOK® – Persiana BASIC TBK
