What are the key properties of PIR boards?
It is important to understand the factors contributing to the increasing popularity of PIR boards, primarily their superior properties compared to other insulation materials, such as styrofoam and mineral wool. Notably, they exhibit excellent thermal insulation characteristics, attributed to a low heat transfer coefficient. Depending on the specific product, the thermal conductivity (λD) can reach an impressive level of 0.019 W/mK. A slab of 120 mm is enough (applies to the roof partition) to meet the technical conditions for 2021. Additionally, the limited thickness of PIR boards ensures high efficiency, with performance significantly exceeding that of styrofoam.
Modern PIR boards are also characterized by lightness, rigidity, durability, chemical resistance and strength. It is also noteworthy that the products in our offering are easy to transport, and their installation is straightforward. Consequently, customers do not need to make a significant investment, as the installation process will not place a substantial burden on the project budget.
What are the most important advantages of PIR thermal insulation boards?
Additional advantages of PIR thermal insulation boards include:
- resistance to biological and chemical agents;
- low absorbability,
- resistance to water and moisture,
- excellent compression resistance,
- fire resistance,
- simple installation—specialist expertise is not required.
It is important to note that the panels are recyclable, which is particularly relevant in today’s context, where sustainable material management is essential for environmental stewardship. Additionally, versatility is a key advantage - PIR boards can be utilized for insulating walls, roofs, floors, ceilings, foundations, terraces, and balconies.
