Insulation for cold and heated floors

Between 10% and 15% of a building’s energy is lost through the floor, especially in areas above unheated spaces or in contact with the ground. Efficient thermal insulation reduces heat loss and improves thermal comfort.

 

THERMOTOP PIR boards stand out due to:

Very low conductivity coefficient (λ=0,021 W/mk)Very low conductivity coefficient (λ=0,021 W/mk)
High compressive strength, between ≤ 130 kPa and ≥ 170kPaHigh compressive strength, between ≤ 130 kPa and ≥ 170kPa
High thermal resistanceHigh thermal resistance
High dimensional stability (does not settle, does not contract, and maintains its thermal properties long-term)High dimensional stability (does not settle, does not contract, and maintains its thermal properties long-term)
