Illustration of a ventilated façade construction featuring a Kingspan Kooltherm® K21 N insulation board with a black facer. The insulation board is installed on the exterior of a concrete wall and positioned behind horizontal timber cladding mounted on timber battens, creating a ventilated cavity. The cutaway view highlights the concrete substrate, insulation layer, support battens, ventilation cavity, and timber façade cladding.

The insulation board is installed on the exterior of a concrete wall and secured with mechanical fixings. An outer brick façade is supported by wall ties, creating a ventilated cavity between the insulation and brickwork. The cutaway view highlights the concrete substrate, insulation layer, cavity, wall ties, and brick cladding.

Kooltherm K21 N Rainscreen Board

Kooltherm K21 N Rainscreen Board is a phenolic foam insulation board with a fiber-free core. It has a permeable mineral coated glass tissue facer on the back and a black expandable graphite, glass tissue complex facer on the front side. This facer expands when in touch with fire and creates a protective layer to help limit the spread of the fire. The board is vapor diffusion open, meaning it can help to significantly reduces the build-up of water vapor in the construction.
