Insulation

About Our Insulation

We supply insulation boards in Greater Manchester for walls, lofts, and floors. Within this range, materials are used to control heat loss, improve acoustic performance, and support compliance with current building regulations. Insulation is specified throughout the build, from ground floors and external walls through to roof spaces and internal partitions. Our range is selected to suit real site conditions, helping trades and DIY customers achieve predictable thermal performance and straightforward installation. If you need guidance on specification or suitability, feel free to get in touch with us.

Our Range of Insulation Boards and Materials

Our insulation range supports different build stages, substrates, and performance requirements. Below are the main insulation types customers use when planning compliant, efficient builds.

Foil Faced PIR Insulation Boards

Foil faced PIR insulation boards are commonly specified where space is limited but thermal performance must remain high. These rigid boards are used in walls, floors, and roofs, offering low thermal conductivity and consistent thickness control. Installers value PIR boards for their clean cuts, predictable sizing, and compatibility with modern construction details.

Cavity Insulation

Cavity insulation is used within external wall cavities to reduce heat transfer while maintaining airflow and moisture control. This insulation type is specified on new builds and extensions, helping meet U-value targets without altering external wall dimensions.

Loft Insulation

Loft insulation is installed above ceiling level to limit heat loss through roof spaces. It plays a key role in improving energy efficiency on refurbishments and retrofits, particularly in domestic properties where loft access allows fast installation.

Acoustic Insulation

Acoustic insulation is used to control sound transmission between rooms and floors. This insulation is often specified in stud walls, floors, and ceilings where noise reduction is required, including residential conversions and commercial interiors.

Across all insulation types, correct thickness, fit, and detailing are essential. Many customers plan insulation alongside structural elements, floor finishes, and internal linings to ensure continuity throughout the build.
