Gaetano Pesce (8 November 1939 – 3 April 2024)

Moving against the stream of rational, functional modernism in the 1960s and early 70s, Mr. Pesce experimented with materials and production methods to create furniture pieces imbued with political or religious meaning for brands from Cassina to B&B Italia.

Many would go on to become icons of Italian design including the Up5 chair – an innovative vacuum-packed chair designed to resemble a female prisoner – which he designed for B&B Italia precursor C&B.

Pesce moved to New York in 1983 and began to move away from mass production to create "standardised series" in everyday materials like resin, adapting conventional production techniques to create varied and imperfect outcomes.

The result are pieces such as the 1884 Pratt chair, which toe the line between functional design and decorative art, helping to create a new category that would later become collectible design.

Mr. Pesce was born in the Italian city of La Spezia in November 1939, only two months after the start of world war two.

As was common at the time, he trained in both architecture and design, studying first at the University of Venice and later at the Venice Institute of Industrial Design.

Among his architecture projects is the Organic Building in Osaka from 1993, with its plant-covered facade made of orange fiberglass that served as a precursor to today's vegetation-covered green walls.

But Mr. Pesce's most pioneering and well-known work happened in the world of design. In the late 1960s, he became one of the leaders of Italy's Radical Design movement, rejecting modernism's rigid focus on forms dictated by function.

Instead, Pesce focused on the idea that functional objects, much like art, could carry a deeper message.

One of the most famous examples is the controversial Up5 chair from 1969, which manufacturer B&B Italia describes as "the first product of Italian design with a political meaning".

Developing more sustainable and recyclable polyurethane foams

A team of researchers from the Center for Education and Research on Macromolecules (CERM) at the University of Liège (Belgium) has developed an innovative process that rethinks the manufacturing of polyurethane (PU) foams without the use of isocyanates—highly toxic agents—while being recyclable. This study is published in the journal Angewandte Chemie International Edition.

Polyurethane (PU) foams are indispensable products in our daily-life, and are available as rigid and flexible materials. For decades, rigid PU foams have played a major role in energy savings when used as the most efficient insulating panels in the construction sector (e.g., floor, wall and roof insulation in buildings) or in household items such as refrigerators (walls and doors). Flexible PU foams are used as comfort materials, e.g., mattresses, sofas, armchairs, car seats, etc., but are also used for sound insulation and shock protection.

Although inexpensive, these materials are prepared from toxic compounds and are difficult to recycle. "PU foams are prepared from isocyanates, which are highly reactive and toxic chemical substances," explains Christophe Detrembleur, FNRS Research Director at the Center for Education and Research on Macromolecules (CERM) within the CESAM research unit at the University of Liège.

Insulation 101: Benefits and Types of Insulation

Commercial building owners invest in quality insulation materials because of their numerous benefits. Insulation helps enhance the overall performance of any commercial building, decreases harmful greenhouse gas emissions, and helps keep your energy bills from increasing.  

In addition, adding insulation to your establishment can also reduce the number of noises coming in and out. This is beneficial mainly for establishments that require better acoustics or sound barriers. Let's learn more about the different types of insulation material available now.

Batt Insulation

Professionals use batt insulation efficiently, one of the most affordable options available today. It comes with two options; with or without facing. Professionals must place this per specifications to resist water vapor transfer. Most insulation today contains recycled materials such as sand. Fiberglass also includes sand which is an environmentally friendly content source.

Batt insulation can either be fiberglass, cotton, or stone wool blankets. Fiberglass is the most common type out of the rest. It is the perfect insulation for attics, walls, ceilings, crawl spaces, and basements.

Blown-in Insulation

When it comes to blown-in insulation, proper installation is a must. Professionals should utilize special equipment and safety measures to ensure long-term function. In addition to being primarily recycled, cellulose blown-in insulation also contains fire-retardant properties. It also resists insects, rodents, and mold and impressively creates a good sound barrier. Once the professionals finish the application, there are also available products with insulation that you can incorporate to enhance your commercial building, such as an insulated roof hatch.

Spray Foam Insulation

If you prefer an insulation material that forms an air barrier, then spray foam insulation should be the option on your list. This material can effectively cover your walls, floors, and ceiling cavities against air movement. This includes spaces around electrical outlets, light fixtures, and walls that meet windows and doors.

Professionals use spray foams in open cavities, like in new construction, crawl spaces, rim joists, and attics. You can also use this on remodeled homes. You can apply the spray foam if the cavities are unrestricted and accessible. Here are the two varieties of spray-foam insulation;

Closed-cell SPF- is a type of spray foam insulation that adds structural strength and is a rigid, vapor-resistant foam that doesn't require replacement in case of a flood.

Open-cell SPF- spray foam insulation that offers identical insulation advantages but does not act as a water barrier or vapor retarder.

Air Sealing

Controlling the air leakage of an establishment is critical to effective insulation. You can do a great job protecting an establishment, but if air can seep through gaps or cracks in the building envelope, you lose your valuable heated or conditioned air.

Concrete Block Insulation

A concrete block's center contains insulating materials such as polystyrene, polyisocyanurate or polyiso, and polyurethane. The hollow centers of concrete blocks can be filled by pouring and injecting loose foam beads or liquid foam. Some professionals create concrete blocks that support rigid foam inserts.  

Reflective System

Unlike most typical insulation, which resists convective and conductive heat flow, reflective insulation works by reflecting radiant heat away from your commercial building. These insulation types are best for hot and humid climates, primarily if you have cooling air ducts in the attic. According to research, radiant barriers can lower cooling costs by up to 5% to 10% when utilized in a warm, sunny temperature.  

There are still other insulation options available. Ensure to collaborate well with your architect, engineer, or contractor to choose the best insulation option based on your commercial building's needs and your project budget.

Selecting your mattress

There's nothing even worse than a mattress that's past its sell-by day. You keep rolling into the centre, you awaken rigid from head to toe, you're tired constantly. Sound acquainted? Well, mattresses must be replaced every 6 to 8 years, so maybe it's time to get a new one. We have actually streamlined a couple of meanings to help you reach grips with the essentials. Air vents: These are positioned on the side of mattresses to enhance air-flow and keep fillings fresh. Fillings: There is a variety of various products used for mattress fillings: cotton (breathable as well as moisture-wicking), woollen (extravagant and also durable); foam (body cushioning), polyester (hypoallergenic) and also a lot more. Gauge: You might hear people discuss the 'gauge' of coils, which is the density of the cable. The lower the gauge number, the thicker the cable and also the stronger the mattress (so a 12 gauge mattress is firmer than a 14 gauge one). Hybrid: A hybrid mattress utilises a combination of pocket springs and memory foam. They're good for people that like both the assistance of pocket springs integrated with the body-moulding and pressure-relieving residential properties of memory foam. Memory foam: Made of polyurethane, memory foam moulds to your shape to target assistance. It's often combined with other materials to guarantee air-flow and also breathability. Mini-springs: These are used to boost the spring matter of a pocket sprung mattress. They are layered on top of anything over 2,000 pocket springs for additional convenience. Open up coil: A widely-made, conventional type of mattress with interlinked coils. A little stronger, a lot more inexpensive and lighter than a pocket spring mattress, but the springs are all attached which can suggest extra 'jump' for resting partners. Pocket spring: Each spring is wrapped independently with product to ensure that they relocate separately of each other. This gives your body assistance where it requires it, and also indicates when you move you won't disrupt your companion. Can be extra costly as well as heavier than open coil mattresses. Tension: This suggests the suppleness or gentleness of the bed. It's a personal choice, but the basic guideline is that larger individuals need a stronger tension as well as lighter individuals require a softer tension. Just as, back sleepers might intend to opt for a stronger tension, and side sleepers might require a softer tension to maintain the back aligned. Don't neglect, the convenience layer and also fillings of the mattress will also influence exactly how 'soft' or 'firm' it feels. Ticking: This basically implies the cover of the mattress, which can be made in a range of materials like cotton or viscose. The type of product utilised can impact durability and also air flow. Some ticking can be treated to make it anti-bacterial, waterproof, anti-static, and also fend off allergen. Tufting: Tufting is when tapes are pulled through the mattress at intervals and also secured on each side. It maintains the filling of the mattress in place so the mattress doesn't shed its framework.

Closed Cell Spray Foam Extraction

Closed cell spray foam extraction is a specialized process focused on the safe and effective removal of rigid closed cell polyurethane foam insulation from buildings. Closed cell spray foam is renowned for its superior insulation properties, including high thermal resistance, moisture control, and structural reinforcement. However, there are instances when removal is necessary, such as for repairs, renovations, or upgrading insulation systems. Due to the foam’s strong adhesive qualities and its tendency to bond tightly to surfaces, extraction requires professional handling to avoid damaging the underlying structure.

The extraction process begins with an assessment to determine the extent of the foam’s application and the most suitable method for removal. Technicians use a variety of specialized tools, such as oscillating saws, foam scrapers, and industrial vacuums, to carefully remove the foam in layers. In certain cases, heat or chemical solvents may be used to soften the foam, making it easier to dislodge. Given that removing closed cell spray foam can release dust and potentially hazardous particles, safety is a primary concern. Professionals are equipped with personal protective equipment (PPE), including respirators, gloves, and eye protection, and may use containment systems like negative air pressure devices to manage airborne particles.

Engaging a professional closed cell spray foam extraction service is crucial to ensure the removal is performed efficiently and without causing damage to the building’s surfaces. Attempting a DIY extraction can result in issues such as damaged drywall, compromised structural integrity, or incomplete removal. Additionally, closed cell foam is non-biodegradable and must be disposed of according to environmental regulations. Professional services ensure proper handling and disposal of the foam, adhering to local regulations and minimizing environmental impact.

What Types of Roof Insulation Are Best for Your Climate?

Choosing the right roof insulation for your home is crucial in maintaining a comfortable indoor environment and reducing energy costs. The type of insulation you need largely depends on the climate in which you live. 

In this blog, let’s explore the different types of roof insulation Adelaide and how to determine the best option based on your climate.

Understanding Roof Insulation

Roof insulation is essential for regulating the temperature inside your home. It works by slowing the transfer of heat between your home and the outside environment. In colder climates, insulation prevents heat from escaping, while in warmer climates, it keeps the heat out. The effectiveness of insulation is measured by its R-value, which indicates its resistance to heat flow. The higher the R-value, the better the insulation.

Types of Roof Insulation

There are several types of roof insulation, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. The most common types include:

Batt Insulation

Batt insulation is one of the most popular types and is made from fibreglass, mineral wool, or cotton. It comes in pre-cut panels that fit between the studs and rafters of your roof. Batt insulation is easy to install and relatively inexpensive. However, it can leave gaps if not installed properly, reducing its effectiveness.

Blown-In Insulation

Blown-in insulation, also known as loose-fill insulation, is made from fibreglass, cellulose, or mineral wool. It is installed using a machine that blows the insulation material into the attic or between roof rafters. 

Blown-in insulation is excellent for covering irregular or hard-to-reach areas, providing a more even coverage than batt insulation. It also has a higher R-value per inch, making it more effective in certain climates.

Spray Foam Insulation

Spray foam insulation is a liquid material that expands into a solid foam when applied. It can be used to insulate roofs, walls, and floors. Spray foam insulation provides an airtight seal, which makes it highly effective in preventing heat transfer. 

It has a high R-value and can fill gaps and cracks that other types of insulation might miss. However, spray foam insulation is more expensive than other options and requires professional installation.

Rigid Foam Insulation

Rigid foam insulation comes in panels made from polystyrene, polyisocyanurate, or polyurethane. These panels can be cut to fit and are typically installed on the exterior of the roof before adding the roofing material. Rigid foam insulation provides a high R-value and is resistant to moisture, making it an excellent choice for roofs in humid climates. It is more expensive than batt or blown-in insulation but offers superior insulation performance.

Reflective Insulation

Reflective insulation, also known as radiant barrier insulation, is made from aluminium foil or other reflective materials. It works by reflecting radiant heat away from your home, making it ideal for hot climates. 

Reflective roof insulation Adelaide is typically installed in the attic, where it can block the sun's rays from heating your home. While it doesn’t have a high R-value, it’s highly effective in reducing cooling costs in hot climates.

Choosing the Right Insulation for Your Climate

The best type of roof insulation for your home depends on the climate in which you live. Here’s a breakdown of which types of insulation are best suited for different climates:

Cold Climates

In cold climates, where temperatures drop significantly during the winter, you’ll want insulation with a high R-value to retain heat. Spray foam insulation is an excellent choice due to its ability to seal air leaks and provide a high level of insulation. Batt insulation with a high R-value is also a good option if you're on a budget.

Hot Climates

For hot climates, reflective insulation is ideal as it reflects radiant heat away from your home, reducing the need for air conditioning. Blown-in insulation is also effective in hot climates, especially when used in attics to prevent heat from entering the living spaces below.

Humid Climates

In humid climates, where moisture is a concern, rigid foam insulation is an excellent choice due to its moisture resistance. Spray foam insulation is also a good option as it creates an airtight seal that can prevent moisture buildup, reducing the risk of mould and mildew.

Mixed Climates

For climates that experience both hot summers and cold winters, a combination of insulation types might be the best solution. Spray foam insulation can provide an airtight seal and high R-value, while blown-in or batt insulation can be used to supplement the overall insulation of your roof.

Final Words

Choosing the right roof insulation is essential for maintaining a comfortable home and reducing energy costs. By considering your climate and the specific benefits of each type of roof insulation Adelaide, you can make an informed decision that will keep your home energy-efficient and comfortable year-round. 

Whether you live in a cold, hot, humid, or mixed climate, there’s an insulation solution that’s perfect for your roof.

How to Choose the Right Die Cut Foam for Your Needs

Choosing the right die cut foam for your needs is crucial to ensuring that your products, equipment, or materials are adequately protected, organized, or supported. Die cut foam is used in a wide range of industries, from packaging and electronics to automotive and medical applications. The right choice depends on the specific requirements of your project, such as the material's durability, density, and protective qualities.

1. Consider the Material Type: There are several types of foam available for die cutting, including polyurethane, polyethylene, and EVA foam. Polyurethane is soft and flexible, making it a good choice for cushioning fragile items. Polyethylene, on the other hand, is a denser, more rigid foam, offering greater impact resistance and durability. For applications requiring flexibility and resilience, such as medical or sports equipment, EVA foam is a strong option. Selecting the appropriate die cut foam material ensures that your products get the protection or support they need.

2. Assess Foam Density and Thickness: The density of the foam will determine how well it can absorb shock or resist pressure. For instance, a high-density foam is better suited for protecting heavy or delicate items from impact during shipping. In contrast, a lower-density foam may be ideal for lightweight packaging or general-purpose use. Thickness is equally important—thicker foam provides better shock absorption and durability, while thinner foam works best for lighter applications.

3. Evaluate the Application Environment: Environmental factors, such as temperature and humidity, also influence the choice of die cut foam. Some foams are more resistant to temperature extremes, moisture, or chemicals, making them suitable for outdoor or industrial applications. For example, closed-cell polyethylene foam offers excellent resistance to water and chemicals, making it ideal for outdoor packaging or automotive uses.

4. Customization and Precision: One of the main advantages of die cut foam is its ability to be customized to fit specific shapes or sizes. When selecting foam, ensure it can be die cut to the precise measurements required for your project. This precision is crucial in applications like tool storage, where the foam must snugly fit around each item for maximum protection and organization.

By considering material type, density, application environment, and customization needs, you can confidently choose the right die cut foam for your project. This ensures the best performance and protection for your items, whether for packaging, insulation, or cushioning.
