Product Information

Full details

The Celotex High Performance Insulation Board is an ideal solution for contractors and DIYers looking to enhance the thermal efficiency of roofs, walls, and floors. Delivering an impressive thermal conductivity of 0.022W/mK and an R-Value of 5.90m2K/W, it provides substantial insulation performance within a manageable 130mm thickness; however, users should note that its rigid construction requires precise cutting to ensure seamless installation in irregular spaces.

FAQs

Can this board be used under concrete floors?

Yes, its compressive strength of 140 kPa is suitable for many domestic ground-bearing floor applications.

Does the board require a vapour barrier?

The foil facing acts as a low-emissivity layer, but you should consult local building regulations to determine if an additional vapour control layer is required based on your specific assembly.

How do I cut the insulation boards?

Use a fine-toothed saw or a long-bladed insulation knife for clean, straight cuts.

What is the R-Value of this board?

The board has an R-Value of 5.90m2K/W.

Is this insulation fire-rated?

Yes, the product complies with BS EN 13501-1 standards for fire classification.

Can I use this on a flat roof?

Yes, this board is specifically engineered for use in flat roof, pitched roof, and wall applications.

Troubleshooting

Board is too large for the joist spacing

Use a straight edge and a sharp utility knife to score and snap the board to the required width.

Visible gaps between boards

Fill joints with a suitable expanding foam or use high-quality foil tape to maintain thermal continuity.

Surface feels cold after installation

Check for thermal bridges where the insulation may have been compressed or damaged during installation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High R-Value for maximum thermal efficiency
  • Lightweight and rigid for easy handling
  • Suitable for various applications including floors, walls, and roofs
  • Verified BBA certification and A-rated sustainability
  • Simple to cut and install on-site

Cons

  • Rigid boards can be difficult to fit in curved or non-standard framing
  • Requires proper sealing to achieve maximum thermal benefits
  • Large sheet size requires significant storage space

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires standard carpentry tools, such as a sharp fine-toothed saw or insulation knife for cutting. Ensure the surface being insulated is dry and clean to allow for proper adhesive or mechanical fixing. While the board is robust, avoid walking directly on exposed boards before the finished floor covering is installed to prevent indentations. Store the boards in a cool, dry place, ideally off the ground, and keep them protected from prolonged direct sunlight or moisture during the construction phase to maintain the integrity of the foil facing.
