EcoTherm Insulation is pleased to announce the launch of EcoTherm Eco-Cavity Full Fill.

The new foil faced, rigid PIR insulation board has been designed to allow simple compliance with the energy requirements of the Building Regulation and Standards, without requiring alterations to standard wall designs.

EcoTherm Eco-Cavity Full Fill is available in standard thicknesses of 90 mm, 115 mm and 140 mm thicknesses.

The insulation board dimensions are sized to co-ordinate with brick and block sizes, allowing them to be quickly installed with standard wall tie methods whilst their tongue and groove edges offer a superior fit and increased resistance to moisture penetration.

A residual 10 mm cavity should be retained when installing the boards to accommodate mortar squeeze and to provide further protection against moisture ingress.

Dean Buttle, Sales Director for EcoTherm Insulation, commented: “This Full Fill product is a great addition to our range of cost effective insulation solutions.

"As with all our products, it is easy to handle which ensures a fuss-free installation. With a thermal conductivity of 0.022 W/m.K, Eco-Cavity Full Fill is excellent value for money as it helps to achieve a compliant U-value without requiring the cavity width to be expanded.”

EcoTherm Eco-Cavity Full Fill has achieved British Board of Agrément (BBA) certification which demonstrates compliance with UK Building Regulations.

The certification independently verifies that the product satisfies the requirements for thermal performance, water resistance, condensation, behaviour in relation to fire, and durability.

All EcoTherm Insulation boards are manufactured with a blowing agent which has zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and have a low Global Warming Potential (GWP).
