Rigid insulation
Rigid boards insulate well for their thickness, which helps where there is little room: shallow walls, floors and some roofs.
What it is
Rigid insulation is PIR (polyisocyanurate) boards, such as Kingspan, cut to size and fixed to the frame, floor or roof.
Boards are often used with batts, or where batts would not reach the rating the design needs.
When it goes in
New build
Where the design calls for boards, they go in at frame or roofing stage, as specified.
Building a new homeExisting home
In renovations and extensions, boards can bring an older wall or floor up to standard where there is no depth for batts.
