Kingspan TP10 insulation board can be found at the rafter level of pitched roofs. Constructed with a fibre-free rigid thermoset polyisocyanurate core covered by low emissivity composite foil facing, it makes cutting and handling simple – suitable for new build and refurbishment projects alike.
Non-deleterious
Kingspan TP10 PIR insulation board can significantly lower energy bills while being easy to cut and handle, making it the ideal choice for new build and retrofit projects. Furthermore, its resilient board surface protects against water vapour infiltration as well as air infiltration.
The Thermapitch roof insulation board was specifically created for use as a rafter level insulation solution in tiled and slated pitched warm roof spaces, boasting high performance rigid thermoset insulation with two low-emissivity composite foil facings on either side.
Product features Non-Deleterious Properties This non-deleteric insulation product does not contain harmful substances and makes an excellent choice for professionals working alone and looking for materials with zero ozone depletion potential and low global warming potential. Furthermore, It boasts an A+ Green Guide Rating; and uses blowing agents with zero ozone depletion potential and low global warming potential, making this eco-friendly alternative suitable for many insulation products on the market.
Low thermal conductivity
Low thermal conductivity indicates that less heat escapes through walls or roofs of buildings, helping reduce energy loss through improper insulation. According to the Energy Saving Trust, approximately 25% of heat egresses uninsulated homes annually – this can be prevented with Kingspan Thermpitch TP10 insulation boards featuring low thermal conductivity that are easy to handle.
Kingspan insulation boards are specifically designed to fit within tiled and slated pitched warm roof applications as well as mansard roof spaces. Their fibre-free thermoset polyisocyanurate core is covered on both sides by low-emissivity foil facing, meeting building regulations in both England and Wales.
These insulation boards boast a low thermal conductivity of 0.22 W/mK, are resistant to sagging over time, do not react with moisture and come equipped with blowing agents that have zero Ozone Depletion Potential and Global Warming Potential, making them an excellent green option for environmentally-minded homeowners.
Fire-resistant
Many insulation products offer fire resistance, such as fiberglass and mineral wool insulation products. Fiberglass insulation products contain glass combined with plastic polymers that is naturally fire-retardant; however, care must be taken with batts that have foil or paper backing as these can ignite quickly. Mineral wool thermal insulation has an extremely high melting point that does not readily burn.
Many insulation products available today have been tested against British Standard tests to assess how readily they catch fire and the amount of smoke produced upon combustion, providing building designers and homeowners with important information that allows them to avoid toxic emissions from their insulation.
PIR insulation boards like Kingspan Thermapitch TP10 are an ideal choice for use in tiled and slated pitched warm roof applications, being both cost-effective and easy to install. Furthermore, this board does not shrink or rot and is resistant to air infiltration.
Eco-friendly
Kingspan TP10 insulation is an eco-friendly choice for your home. Constructed with a rigid fibre-free thermoset PIR insulation core coated on both sides with low-emissivity foil facing, it’s designed for tiled or slate pitched warm roof spaces and conforms with Part E of building regulations in England and Wales. Part of Kingspan Therma range which also includes Thermapitch and Thermawall products.
These insulation boards are manufactured using a blowing agent with zero Ozone Depletion Potential and low Global Warming Potential, making them an excellent way to take steps toward sustainable living. Furthermore, they’re easy to cut and handle – making them the ideal choice for anyone seeking sustainable living solutions.
Straw bale construction is another eco-friendly way of building homes. This form of building uses less wood, can use various materials (including reclaimed timber), and acts as an effective fire retardant as the straw deprives flames of oxygen needed for combustion, helping prevent rapid spread.
