Recticel Eurothane GP PIR Insulation Board — Roof, Wall, Floor
Description

Eurothane GP is a general purpose rigid polyisocyanurate (PIR) closed cell foam board, faced on both sides with a multi-layer coated aluminium foil.

It has an exceptionally low thermal conductivity of 0.022 W/mK. It does not degrade if exposed to moisture, is rot-proof and the boards have a high resistance to the passage of moisture vapour so reduce the risk of condensation.

Board size is 2400 x 1200mm, available in eleven thicknesses from 25mm to 160mm.

Key Features
  • Eurothane GP is CFC and HCFC-free, i.e. zero ozone depletion potential (ODP)
  • Pentane-blown  polyisocyanurate foam
    • Global Warning Potential (GWP) rating of <5
    • Overall 'A' rating in Green Specification Guide
  • Lightweight and easy to cut
  • Rot-proof, does not degrade if exposed to moisture
  • High compressive strength — 140kPa
