In response to
customer demand, RAVATHERM UK, the POLYFOAM XPS insulation manufacturer, has
launched three new floorboard products offering specifiers and contractors a
greater choice of thicknesses.
Adding to the
company’s Floorboard Extra range, the new XPS insulation products are available
in a thickness of 60, 125 and 150mm.
Speaking about the
launch, Stuart Bell, managing director at RAVATHERM UK said: “We work closely
with our customers to understand their needs to ensure we can continue to offer
the right product mix.
“We recognised that
there was a growing demand for different insulation thicknesses for new floor
construction, so have responded by developing three new products aligned to
specific customer requests.
“POLYFOAM Floorboard
Extra in 125mm and 150mm are now the thickest products in the range and will
prevent installers from having to double layer the insulation boards to achieve
certain U-values. This will help to reduce costs and labour time.”
The new products
mean that POLYFOAM Floorboard Extra is available in nine different thicknesses
ranging from 25 – 150mm.
Suitable for almost
any floor construction in domestic or industrial properties, POLYFOAM
Floorboard Extra is highly resistant to compression and water absorption and
offers thermal conductivity of 0.033 W/mK.
All products in the
range achieve a BRE Certified Green Guide rating of A+, have product-specific
Type III Environmental Product Declarations and are 100% recyclable.
RAVATHERM UK carries
out U-value calculations free of charge for building designers involved in the
construction of ground floors.
