PIR and EPS façade board, 100 mm – Thermano ETICS

External wall insulation needs to improve the thermal performance of the building and provide a suitable base for the reinforced coat and render. PIR boards designed for an external thermal insulation composite system (ETICS) have facings chosen for that system. SteelProfil helps you select insulation for an external wall where thermal performance, carefully detailed openings and the available depth all matter.

The low thermal conductivity of the PIR core can reduce the thickness needed to reach a given insulation target. That helps at narrow window reveals, beneath short eaves and on buildings with distinctive architectural details. Check the board thickness against the design and the thermal requirements for the whole wall. Planning the build-up also makes it easier to size sills and flashings, especially when renovating a façade with many windows and little space around the openings.

For a rendered façade, use a board specified for the particular ETICS. Its facing must work with the specified adhesive, fixings, reinforced base coat and finish. A complete system specification provides a basis for purchasing the materials and installing them. We can help identify the board intended for your system.

Rigid boards help create an even insulation layer and allow joints around windows and doors to be set out accurately. In refurbishment work, plan how the new layers meet the plinth and roof. PIR may suit a detached house or a commercial building where the appearance depends on carefully finished junctions. The selected system documentation determines the final combination of materials.

• A low-conductivity core can provide effective insulation where space is limited.
• An ETICS board specified for the system provides a suitable base for a rendered façade.
• Choosing the thickness early helps to detail window reveals, sills and eaves.

SteelProfil’s insulation range includes first- and second-grade materials, with selected items available from stock. We check availability separately for boards accepted in your chosen ETICS. The characteristics of the actual batch affect its suitability for a façade. We base the offer on the specified product and its documentation so the order matches the planned build-up.

Ask about current prices and promotions for the insulation and the other materials you need. Send the wall area, your preferred insulation thickness or thermal requirement, and the name of the system. We will prepare an offer for façade PIR boards and help define the scope of the order, taking account of the space available, the finish and the budget.
