Our Kooltherm 100 range of rigid insulation boards achieve a thermal conductivity of 0.019 W/mK across all board thicknesses. This thermal performance allowed the target U-values to be met with a slim thickness of insulation, ensuring the aesthetic integrity of Pollard Thomas Edwards’ contemporary designs could be maintained.

Installers were able to simply cut the lightweight boards to size with a fine-toothed saw and install them within the modular buildings ready to be transported to site.
