Loft Insulation
Our loft insulation solutions combine multifoil technology with breathable membranes to optimise thermal efficiency. Designed for both new builds and retrofits, these systems reduce heat loss through roofs by up to 90%. The thin, flexible materials fit easily between rafters while maintaining ventilation gaps. Compliant with UK building regulations, our loft insulation helps homeowners achieve U-values below 0.15 W/mK. Professional installers and DIY enthusiasts benefit from our comprehensive fitting guides and technical support.
Wall Insulation
We provide advanced wall insulation systems using multilayer foil technology for both internal and external applications. Our solutions address thermal bridging in timber frame constructions while maintaining moisture control. The products meet EN 13162 standards for thermal performance and fire safety. Ideal for renovations and new developments, these systems achieve U-values down to 0.18 W/mK. Our technical team provides detailed installation specifications for different wall types, ensuring compliance with Part L building regulations.
Floor Insulation
Our floor insulation kits use closed-cell foam technology to prevent cold bridging in suspended timber and concrete floors. The non-itch materials offer superior thermal resistance while resisting moisture absorption. Designed for easy installation between joists or over concrete slabs, these systems achieve thermal conductivity as low as 0.021 W/mK. The products carry CE marking for dimensional stability and compressive strength. We provide U-value calculations and installation videos for different floor constructions.
Conservatory Insulation
Specialist insulation systems for conservatory roofs and walls address temperature extremes in glass structures. Our solutions combine reflective foil layers with breather membranes to control condensation while maintaining thermal efficiency. The lightweight materials fit beneath existing roof panels without structural modifications. Tested to BS EN 6946 standards, these systems reduce summer heat gain by 40% while improving winter heat retention. We offer U-value calculations for different conservatory types and orientations.
Outbuilding Insulation
Comprehensive insulation kits for sheds, summerhouses, and garages use multifoil technology to create year-round usable spaces. The systems combine thermal performance with vapour control to prevent condensation in metal or timber structures. Our solutions meet Building Regulations for outbuildings over 15m. The DIY-friendly kits include all necessary tapes and fixings, with installation guides covering different construction types. Thermal performance data shows up to 70% reduction in heat loss compared to uninsulated structures.
Questions
What is multifoil insulation and how does it work?
Multifoil insulation uses alternating layers of reflective foil and insulating wadding to reduce heat transfer through radiation and conduction. The reflective surfaces bounce thermal energy back into the building during winter and away during summer, creating more stable indoor temperatures.
How do I calculate required insulation thickness?
Required thickness depends on your target U-value, which is determined by building regulations and construction type. Our website provides U-value calculators for different applications, or our technical team can advise based on your specific project requirements.
Can I install insulation myself?
Yes, all our products are designed for DIY installation with clear instructions and video guides. However, complex projects or large commercial installations may benefit from professional assistance to ensure optimal performance and compliance.
What building regulations apply to insulation?
Our products meet current Part L building regulations for thermal performance. For new builds and extensions, we recommend YBS SuperQuilt which carries EN 13162 certification. Loft conversions require minimum 0.15 W/m²K U-values, which our systems achieve with appropriate installation.
How does insulation affect energy bills?
Proper insulation can reduce heating costs by up to 25% by minimising heat loss. Our thermal performance data shows typical savings of £150-£300 annually for loft insulation in average UK homes, with faster payback periods for commercial properties.
What warranty do products carry?
We offer 10-year manufacturer warranties on all insulation products when installed according to our technical specifications. This covers material defects and guaranteed thermal performance parameters under normal usage conditions.
