Installing 40mm insulation plasterboard is a great way to add thermal resistance to your walls. There are a number of types available, including Gyproc ThermaLine Plus and Celotex insulation. Learn more about these products. Here are some simple steps to ensure that you get the best results when installing them.
Gyproc ThermaLine Plus
Gyproc ThermaLine Plus insulation plasterboard is a closed cell foam insulation suitable for new build and refurbishment projects. It is a versatile insulation board that provides excellent levels of heat retention, energy efficiency, and moisture resistance. It is CFC and HCFC free, and is suitable for internal and external applications. It is a cost effective insulation solution for your new build or refurbishment project.
Gyproc ThermaLine Plus insulation plasterboard can be cut to size to fit your requirements. The insulating side should be facing out when fixing the board. You should also make sure to place the fixings at least 13mm from the edges of the board.
Celotex insulation
Celotex insulated plasterboard is a durable, high-performing board for interior and exterior walls. It features a PIR foam core with a laminated backing, making it an excellent option for homes in the UK. Its A+ rating in the BRE Green Guide means it meets Building Regulations for heat loss.
This thermal insulated plasterboard can be mechanically fixed to masonry walls or adhered with ‘dot and dab’ plaster. Its 15mm thickness makes it ideal for lining door and window reveals and helping maintain continuity of the thermal envelope. It’s also lightweight and easy to install.
Because of its lightweight design and insulation properties, Celotex insulated plasterboard can be used throughout a building. However, it is not suitable for external walls in buildings more than eleven metres high. Recent changes in Building Regulations make it necessary to use insulation that does not burn or ignite.
In addition to its good thermal insulation benefits, Celotex is also environmentally friendly. Its use of a zero-ozone depletion blowing agent means it has a lower impact on the ozone than some other PIR products. Celotex also provides flexibility for installation and can be cut to size to suit the dimensions of your building.
Gyproc Thirmaline Basic
Thermal insulation plasterboard is available in a variety of thicknesses. Gyproc Thermaline Basic is ivory coloured plasterboard with a CFC and HCFC free Expanded Polystyrene (EPO) layer bonded to the surface. It is suitable for a basic level of additional insulation and comes in a variety of thicknesses, from 22mm to 40mm.
This Gyproc Thermaline Basic Insulated Plasterboard is composed of 9.5mm Gyproc wallboard with a polystyrene insulation core. It has a certified thermal conductivity of 0.038W/mK. It is supplied with a tapered edge for decorative purposes. However, it is not suitable for use in continuously damp areas.
Gyproc ThermaLine Basic is a factory-bonded insulation board. It offers excellent heat resistance and durability, which makes it a sustainable alternative to standard insulation boards. It has a low Global Warming Potential (GWP) and is ozone-depletion-free. It is also resistant to freezing temperatures.
Gyproc ThermaLine Basic Insulated Plasterboard offers a tapered edge for easier installation. It provides basic thermal insulation and is ideal for rooms with low insulation levels. It is mounted onto a CFC-free polystyrene insulator, making it an eco-friendly choice.
Gyproc WallBoard
The Gyproc WallBoard 40mm Insulation Plasterboard comes in an ivory colour. It is backed with extruded polystyrene. It is usually fixed with the decorative face facing out, with fixings positioned around 13mm or 10mm from the edges. When fixing, make sure to keep the boards flat and secure by avoiding bending or twisting. Make sure to sand off any paper burrs with a fine sandpaper. Also, if horizontal boards are to be joined, they should be staggered by at least 600mm. Boards should also be positioned to the centre line of the framing.
The Gyproc WallBoard 40mm Insulation Plasterboard has a 9.5mm thick insulating core and is factory bonded to a polystyrene insulator. The insulating foam is CFC free and has a Global Warming Potential of only 5. Its closed cell structure provides integral vapour control. The Gyproc WallBoard 40m3 is suitable for medium levels of thermal insulation.
Gyproc WallBoard is available in a variety of thicknesses and features. Thermaline Plus and Gyproc WallBoard 40mm Insulation plasterboards are CFC and HCFC-free. Both types of insulation plasterboard are available in different thicknesses, from 9.5mm to 40mm.
Gyproc WallBoard is easy to install and versatile. It can be used to create internal partitions, line ceilings and walls, and more. Available in several performance levels, it has many uses. At Online Insulation, you can find the plasterboard solution for your project. This product comes with an acoustic mass layer, which is perfect for improving the sound insulation in a room.
Gyproc Soundbloc
Gyproc SoundBloc is an insulation plasterboard with a high-density aerated gypsum core and strong paper liners. It is suitable for use in internal walls and ceilings and has been independently tested to BES 6001 for sound insulation. The range also includes GTEC Moisture Plasterboard, which is a water-resistant plasterboard. It is available with either Thistle Board Finish or Thistle Multi-Finish finishes.
British Gypsum manufactures a wide range of plasterboard materials for different applications, including Gyproc Soundbloc 40mm insulation and Gyproc Thermaline Plus. These products are both fire-resistant and moisture-resistant, and can be used for both DIY projects and professional plastering.
You can cut Gyproc Soundbloc insulation plasterboard to size using a plasterboard saw. You must make sure the decorative side is facing out, and that the fixings are placed at least 13mm from the board’s edges. This will prevent them from crumbling when plastered. Also, ensure that you keep Thermaline plasterboards stored in a clean, dry environment. If they are left outside, they can crumble and leak. If they become contaminated with non-gypsum materials, you should dispose of them correctly.
