Insulation materials with XPS or PIR filler.
Insulation materials with XPS (extruded polystyrene) or PIR (polyisocyanurate) fillers are modern building materials that are ideal for thermal insulation of buildings. These materials have a low thermal conductivity, ensuring effective heat retention and protecting the building against heat loss. In addition, XPS and PIR are lightweight yet robust materials that facilitate installation and reduce the load on the building structure.
XPS
XPS
XPS insulation boards have a closed porous and homogeneous structure with small cells that give the material strength, low thermal conductivity and water absorption. Extruded polystyrene foam is rodent-resistant, rot-proof, resistant to chemical attack and aggressive environmental conditions.
Application:
XPS insulation boards are used for insulation of foundations, roofs, floors and facades.
Advantages:
– Low thermal conductivity
– Resistance to high temperatures and water absorption;
– Low weight;
– Durability;
– Environmentally friendly;
– Material lifetime of at least 50 years.

PIR
PIR
The thermal insulation properties of PIR panels are an unrivalled tool for increasing the energy efficiency of a building. The thermal insulation panels have a low thermal conductivity (λ = 0,022 W/mK). This allows the use of a thinner layer of insulation that does not reduce the useful floor area of the building. This effect cannot be achieved with traditional materials such as polystyrene foam or mineral wool.
Polyisocyanurate foam is used for the production of PIR insulation boards. This material is a derivative of polyurethane, but has much better parameters, especially in terms of fire resistance.
Application:
PIR insulation boards are used to insulate pitched roofs, lofts, attics, flat roofs and terraces, as well as walls, ceilings, basements, foundations and floors.
Benefits:
– Low thermal conductivity;
-Ability to use a thin layer of thermal insulation;
– Low weight;
– Variety of panel coatings;
– Very high compressive strength;
– Resistance to high temperatures and water absorption;
– Durability;
– Environmentally friendly;
– Material lifetime of at least 50 years.
