- Flat roof insulation
- As building boards - Composite Insulation Panels (CIP) and Structural Insulated Boards (SIP)
A high performance rigid insulation board made from PIR core faced with ow emissivity aluminium foil facings bonded to plasterboard, specially designed for internal walls dry lining and insulation, due to its closed cell composition and tight facings that provide not only thermal insulation but also high level of moisture resistance and a vapour control layer, a 3 in 1 solution.

Phenolic insulation bonded board
A highly efficient rigid board bonded to phenolic foam insulation that offers vapour control and fire resistance. The phenolic core is manufactured without harmful agents such as CFC and HCFC, hence it is highly environmentally friendly. When the phonolic core is bonded to gypsum board, they become practically incombustible.

Structural Insulated Panels
Structural insulated panels (SIPs) are the main element of a high performance construction system for residential and commercial construction. A SIP consists of an insulating foam core sandwiched between two structural facings. Oriented strand board (OSB) is used widely to create SIPs. They are made in factory conditions, the insulating core is bonded to the OSB sheets at high pressure. Together as the panel has higher strength than the OSB sheet and the insulating core. SIP construction is much less labour intensive than traditional wood frame construction. Extruded and expanded polystyrene is mostly used as the insulating core.
