FAQs

What is Jablite?

Jablite is a brand of expanded polystyrene (EPS) insulation boards used in construction for thermal insulation.

What is the R-value of the 25mm boards?

The R-value will vary depending on the specific product and testing. Check the product specifications for the exact R-value.

Can I use these boards on a roof?

How do I cut the insulation boards?

Gaps between boards after installation.

Fill any gaps with appropriate sealant or expanding foam to prevent heat loss.
