Thermal Insulation
We design and manufacture advanced thermal insulation solutions that significantly improve energy efficiency across industrial and construction sectors. Our products reduce heat transfer in HVAC systems, pipework and building envelopes while maintaining compliance with UKCA regulations. Specialised offerings include phenolic boards for curved surfaces and high-performance insulation for temperature-controlled packaging applications.
Acoustic Panels
Our acoustic panel solutions deliver superior sound absorption for commercial and industrial environments. Designed for schools, offices and healthcare facilities, these panels combine mineral wool with various facing materials to meet specific noise reduction requirements while maintaining aesthetic appeal and regulatory compliance.
Fire Protection
We provide comprehensive fire protection systems including cavity barriers, lamella fire breaks and fire-resistant upstand boards. These solutions help prevent fire spread in buildings and maintain structural integrity during fire incidents. All components are engineered to meet the latest fire safety regulations and industry standards.
