PIR Thermal Board Dry lining Insulation

Insulating a solid masonry wall can be done by the fitting of insulated plasterboard fixed by adhesive dabs to ensure a continuous layer of insulation on the interior of the wall’s surface. Commonly used as a method of insulating walls in retrofit projects, using PIR insulation boards with a plasterboard finish eliminates the need for an additional layer of plasterboard to finish.

Fixing the insulation boards using adhesive dabs is only suitable for masonry walls which are even and free from moisture. It is not suitable for uneven surfaces or walls with a risk of moisture penetration, such as timber frame or steel frame construction.

Insulated plasterboard is a high performance, fibre free insulated board, with a kraft paper facing on one side and plasterboard bonded to the other side which is suitable for fixing using dot-and-dab adhesive or mechanical fixings.

Available from 26mm (17mm ins + 12.5m slab) to 150mm
